Welcome Text

Welcome to my weather blog. Throughout the semester, I will be making daily updates (including corresponding photos and/or videos) about the weather occurring in the Eau Claire area. In addition, many photos and videos illustrating weather from other parts of the world that I find interesting will be included.

The High Pressure Returns

My predictions from yesterday were fairly accurate.  On my walk to school early this afternoon, the sun was shining through scattered clouds.  There was a light SW wind, which helped to keep the temperature fairly warm.  As seen in Figure 1, the Eau Claire area is currently overcast and experiencing a SSE wind at roughly 15 miles per hour.

Based on the current high-pressure system, there won't be many changes in the weather tomorrow.  The sun will be out, but scattered to broken clouds will be overhead.  The temperature should be even warmer tomorrow due to the overcast sky tonight.  Precipitation will be unlikely.
