Barometric Pressure: 1024.1 mb

It has been another cold day in Eau Claire! With temperatures well below zero, the wind chill is currently just above 0° F! It has been very windy most of the day which is causing the low wind chills we are seeing today. There were clear skies this morning, but as the day progressed the skies have gradually clouded up with what appears to be cumulostratus clouds. I believe that tomorrow we will see wind speeds similar to today, but may even be a bit stronger. This will be due to the pressure gradient between the high pressure system over us currently and the approaching low pressure system. As the low pressure system moves our way, it will be connected to a warm front and temperatures will most likely rise as a result.
