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.

Calm Conditions

On my way into work this morning, the temperature felt a lot colder than it looked.  A light wind from the W was present.  When I left work earlier this evening, it felt much warmer.  Clear conditions were present and a few cirrus clouds.

Figure 1 shows that there is currently a stationary front in the area.  Until something causes this to move, the mass of cold air behind the front will remain in place.  Based on the stationary front and high pressure, there will be minimal changes in the weather tomorrow.  Cloud cover will be clear to scattered.  Temperature will be about the same as today.  If any wind is present, it will be a light wind out of the west until the high pressure moves through.  Precipitation will be unlikely due to the high pressure.
