Some of you may be wondering why today's title is "Cincinnati Fire Kite," well today in lab we learned how to make a fire kite. It was a great demonstration of how hot air is less dense than cold air and hence rises. With so much cold air in our region the kites flew high! Back to the weather...It was once again chilly in Eau Claire, WI. The forecast for the week projects temperatures into the 30s, which means shorts weather to our ears. We are also guaranteed to get snow tonight still as the low pressure system that has been making its way south comes across the state. The skies have been cold and windy all day long, so it will be quite the change to be overcast and see snow fall yet again. The temperature is staying above 0º which is a pleasant change and is projected to get even higher tomorrow.
