It was feeling more like February than April today! I woke up and realized that it was snowing, and it kept snowing till around 2:30 this afternoon! The temperature is hovering right around freezing so most of the snow is piling up, but a lot of it has turned into a slushy mix. All of this snow fall is due to a large low pressure system moved through well to our south, but still affected our weather conditions. As the system passes through we will have windy conditions until the high pressure system to our west settles over most of the upper Midwest. I believe we will have a very nice weekend in Eau Claire. Once the high pressure moves in, the winds should calm down and the skies should clear up. With an approaching warm front, the temperatures will rise to be in the mid 40's both Saturday and Sunday. The winds should be fairly mild due to the presence of the high pressure system over much of the Midwest.
