It was very difficult to come back to Eau Claire weather yesterday. Boca Raton, Florida, where I was staying for spring break had temperatures in the mid 70s to low 80s all week long. When we were landing at the Milwaukee airport the flight attendant said the temperature was 32. Ouch.

Today I noticed some stratus clouds but also some cumulus clouds mixed in. It has been relatively mild.


Current conditions

Temperature: 35°F
Wind: 11 mph from the North
Pressure: 30.05 in
Humidity: 53%
Dew Point: 20°F

 As you can see we are in an area of high pressure - cold temperatures.

You can see the continental polar air coming down from Canada, another reason for our cold temps. The pressure gradient does look like we should be getting stronger winds than we are, maybe they will pick up soon.

There is also a storm in the mid Atlantic right now - the pressure is very low and continuing to drop right off the cost over there which indicates a strong storm. Fortunately there isn't too much snow from all of the moisture, due to the temperatures being well above freezing.
