5/10/12
Current Conditions:
Temperature: 48 F
Humidity: 62%
Pressure: 29.98
Winds: SSE 12 mph ( http://hint.fm/wind/index.html )
Skies: Clear
Today hit a high of 71 degrees! That is right around near perfect in my book! The skies remained clear all day due to the high pressure system in the area. Fortunately for us, it looks like Eau Claire, including much of the midwest will remain in the high pressure system for much of the weekend! Expect temperatures to remain in the 70's with a few clouds passing through later in the day tomorrow.
this video seems strange, but I promise it is worth a watch! -very creative, and surprisingly good!

Current Conditions:
Temperature: 56 F
Winds: 9mph West
Humidity: 64%
Pressure: 29.85 in
Cloud Cover: Mostly Cloudy
Dew Point: 44 °F
Although the clouds look pretty ominous, don't expect much precipitation today! Earlier this mornig we had strong wings coming from the S/SE. In the Northern skies we had a mackeral sky pattern. By 12 pm the skies were expolding with cumulus mediocris clouds. Fortunately, the winds shifted this afternoon, so the west winds will make it harder for precipitation to occur! Look for showers later tonight around 8pm and temperatures to remain in the low 50's.
This map is similar to ones that I have in my data section tab up top! Feel free to click there if you would like more in depth analysis of this record breaking winter!

Current Conditons:
Temperature: 68 F
Humidity: 37%
Sky: Clear
Pressure: 29.89
Winds: 13 mph west
Currently Eau Claire is under a high pressure system!! Finally- from the rain that we have experienced this weekend, we need it! We woke up this morning to dewy grass and damp windshields! Luckily there were very few cirrus clouds left in the sky, so the sun was able to dry everything up! As you can see in the bottom map, water vapor is present over the areas of the country which are also within a low pressure system.

5/6/12
Look out for the occluded front that is located just west of us! This front could produce some more precipitation tonight so be ready for that! It'll be a nice way to wake up for the wonderful Monday mornings that everyone seems to dread- damp ground! As for today, most of the precipitation that we should expect has already occured this morning. Expect the skies to clear up a little around 4pm or 5 pm as we see a break from the low pressure systems to our east and west.

Current Conditions:
Temperature: 62 F
Humidity: 90%
Pressure: 30.01
Winds: 9mph NE
Skies: nimbostratus
Today I my friend and I woke up early to drive to the cities to hear a speaker. Waking up was rather difficult because it was quite chilly and it seemed to be drizzling outside! Currently, we are under a low pressure system that reaches out into the Dakotas and up into Canada. The temperatures are related with the jet stream that is currently bringing in the continental polar airmass from our friendly neighbors to the north. The current storms are associated with the convective lifting happening that has caused the stationary front that is over the area. Expect precipitation to continue throughout the night and into early morning.
and now for your corny weather related song for the day...

Today Started off quite sunny...
and about 7 hours later stratus clouds completely filled the area and it began to rain (therefore the clouds would be considered nimbostratus due to the fact that they are producing precipitation.)
Today was a great example of a warm front sequence!
Current Conditions:
Temperature: 59 F
Humidity: 74%
Winds: 14 MPH from the East
Skies: stratus
Pressure: 29.96
Currently Eau Claire is under a low pressure system. Winds are gusting at around 14 miles per hour. It is lightly raining on and off and will continue that way throughout most of the night. Expect temperatures tomorrow to be humid throughout most of the day as the low pressure system moves through bringing a warm front along with it.
