Current Conditions:
Temperature: 39° F
Wind Chill: 35° F
Wind Direction: NW at 6 mph.
Dew Point: 30° F
Barometric Pressure: 1024.7 mb

It is cooler again today with temperatures hovering around 40° F. The winds have shifted and are currently coming out of the NW. I believe this is due to the passing of a low front, and there is now a new, cooler air mass dominating the region. It has been overcast most of the day with a few breaks in the clouds here and there, but nothing significant. The clouds appear to be cumulostratus because they are large and puffy, but yet cover the entire sky. For tomorrow I predict that we will finally start to see some warmer temperatures. Since it will be cloudy tonight, the clouds will act as insulation and not allow the temperatures to drop quite as low as if it were clear. There is also a warm front approaching from the west. This will most likely cause a shift in wind direction and bring in warmer air.
