Today's Conditions

My prediction of rain has yet to become true, although the air has been quite humid and skies in the distance are growing darker with each hour. Low pressure located to our west is pulling warm, moist air from the gulf up to northern Wisconsin and then back west to the low pressure center, causing gentle, warm eastern winds in Eau Claire. An enormous warm front is heading north to Wisconsin which should cause for a significant rise in temperatures later on today, and quite possibly causing the warmest temperatures of the year so far. A large patch of thunderstorms is caught between western high pressure and eastern low pressure, which will cause these storms to hit the Twin Cites before too long. Large quantities of sharks in the gulf have been picked up by these strong winds and are traveling at alarming speeds towards the storm system.

After some morning thunderstorms, the clouds have gone away and left behind a perfectly sunny day. Warm air is being pulled from the gulf and brought directly up to the Midwest, at least for the beginning of the day. Through the afternoon the clouds have started to roll back in, and SE winds tell me that some serious low pressure is located to our southwest. This pressure could develop into some serious storms considering the moisture that is being dragged from the coasts into the Midwest. I predict more thunderstorms tonight and into tomorrow, with rain continuing for most of the day.

After almost an entire week of precipitation, the clouds have broken down and allowed for some sunshine and warmer temperatures over the weekend. The sky remains mostly cloudy for the time being with temperatures reaching a high of 60 degrees Fahrenheit. High pressure from the north is causing winds to spiral out in a clockwise pattern, striking up from the eastern side. Many low pressure patterns out west have created a large trough with intersecting stationary and cold fronts, causing scattered showers and patches of cold temperatures.

The low pressure system from yesterday has migrated northward to the upper peninsula, causing the precipitation to remain over northern Wisconsin. This change in pressure has also shifted the winds to the north instead of the easterly direction from earlier this week. All levels for today are similar to the week's trend, only varying by a few units for all measurements. As the low pressure shifts eastward we should expect winds to change to the west following the pressure gradient, allowing the precipitation to finally clear out and cause some clear skies for the weekend.

I'm getting tired of
all of the April showers.
Time for May flowers
