It has been unseasonably cold today here in Eau Claire! The temperatures were in the mid 30's but with the wind chill, it felt like it was in the lower 20's. This is due to the cold front that has passed over our area, and there is cooler air from the north moving in with a high pressure system. The day started very windy and with overcast skies. As the day progressed, we encountered a few flurries but the clouds gave way to sunny skies later in the afternoon. I predict that we will have warmer temperatures tomorrow and the winds should slow down slightly. The day will start with clear skies, but as it progresses into the afternoon hours we should start to see clouds moving into our area. This is due to the approaching stationary front from the south. That will be the system that will bring us the precipitation that we are expected to see later in the week.
