Monday, February 16th 2015

Temperature: 15
Real Feel: 8
Wind: WNW 5 mph
Precipitation: 20%
Humidity: 74%

Warm Front and Low Pressure Bring Some Snow
I was correct in stating that temperatures would most likely warm up today. Even though we can't expect a drastically warm increase this time a year, having temperatures above zero is at least something to hope for. I also predicted a higher increase in precipitation due to the warmer temperatures, which I was also correct in stating.

The slight increase in temperatures today is due to the warm front moving through Eau Claire. In addition to the warm front there is also a low pressure system in effect for today. Because of this we received some light snow flurries this afternoon. There was full cloud cover for the most part of today which is also related to the low pressure system. Winds were fairly calm, coming mainly from the west. 

I don't really anticipate that great of change in conditions from today to tomorrow. I predict similar temperatures, with partly to mostly cloudy skies.
