Current Conditions:
Temperature: 12° F
Wind Chill: -5° F
Wind Direction: SW at 16 mph. Gusts at 24 mph.
Dew Point: 2° F
Barometric Pressure: 1003.8 mb

It has been a cold and very windy day here in Eau Claire. The high winds speed is due to the rapid change in pressure we have been seeing, with a steady decline since yesterday afternoon. Although the winds are stronger than yesterday, the temperature is higher which has led to a wind chill slightly warmer, but still below 0° F. I believe that tomorrow we will see colder temperatures due to a cold front that will be passing across our region as the evening progresses. That should bring clear skies, with very cold temperatures and even lower wind chills. We are in a wind chill advisory until Thursday at 3 a.m. with wind chills predicted to approach -31° F! Hopefully it will start to warm up sometime soon!
