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!

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.

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.

Expect to see a few scattered showers later this afternoon as the storm system to our east passes through. If precipitation occurs, it shouldn't last long! Expect the skies to start clearing up towards the middle of the evening as we enter the into the high pressure. The 300mb reading is showing that the jet stream is bringing in the subtropical jet.

Wind direction - SE (http://hint.fm/wind/index.html)
Wind speed - 4 mph
Cloud cover - overcast (altostratus)
Watch the weather carefully today because we are expected to get some rain - or in other terms, a midlatitude cyclone! The warm front associated with the air coming off of the golf of Mexico should overtake the cold front and move north, while the cold front of the rockies will move across the great plains. Expect precipitation to occur in about 6 hours. Watch for the cloud patterns today too as the front moves closer!

Tempertures today will remain in the upper forties to lower fifties due to the high pressure system located to our north. The low temperatures are associated with the continental polar air mass bringing the cold northern air down from canada. The winds are incredibly strong today! Look for a midlatitude cyclone to occur if the trough dips down low enough sometime later this evening!

Pressure: 29.69
Cloud Coverage: Clear
Earlier this morning, Eau Claire was experiencing a mid latitude cyclone with precipitation acquiring to about half an inch. Around 12pm the nimbostratus clouds started clearing up and stratus clouds, followed by cirrus moved in towards the afternoon. Late evening, the skies were clear, indicating that Eau Claire is under a high pressure system. Expect tomorrow's temperatures to be cooler than today's due to the polar continental air mass making its way through the area. Eau Claire should remain in a high pressure system through tomorrow afternoon.

Earlier this morning Eau Claire saw 100% clear skies, although there was a slight haze around the sun (indicating a front was going to move through.) Around 11:00 cirrus clouds rolled in, followed by total cloud coverage (stratus) around 2pm. Temperatures have significantly cooled down due to the jet stream bringing in the polar continental from Canada. There is a storm system to the west of Eau Claire, so expect scattered showers this evening.

Today started off with a few cirrus clouds in the sky, but by late afternoon early evening, the skies had cleared up! This morning was chilly (aprx. 36 degrees around sunrise) but it has warmed up significantly to about 55 degrees! Currently Eau Claire is under a high pressure system which is the explanation for such clear skies! The rain that we experienced yesterday has completely passed us and is making its mark on the Eastern states at this very moment. Looking ahead for tomorrow, expect to see some clouds start to develop throughout the day and slight precipitation to occur in the evening. This is predicted by the start of the warm front coming through indicated by the wind direction and slight cloud coverage.

This morning we woke up to rain showers! The precipitation was mostly associated with a mid latitude cyclone, which passed through Eau Claire last night and brought over a half inch of rain. The early afternoon skies cleared up a bit., except for the cumulus clouds that were present in the northern sky. Today's high was around 68 degrees! Expect temperatures to drop into the mid thirties tonight. Tomorrow we should be seeing some more precipitation as the low pressure system continues to move through from the west.

Quite the change in temperature that we've had over the past couple of days! This morning people thought it was snowing but in actuality it was graupel that was falling. Temperatures are rather cold due to the continental polar air mass. Into the night, the high pressure system to the northwest of us will move in and alleviate some of the intense weather conditions we have been seeing. Tomorrow expect it to be partly cloudy with precipitation in the morning, clearing out throughout the day.
