2/2/2012

Today is Groundhog's Day and it turns out that the groundhog did indeed see his shadow which means 6 more weeks of winter. Well, I for one can handle 6 more weeks of the weather we have been having lately. The weak high pressure system has been slowly making its way past us which led to a carbon copy of yesterday. Today was again 100% cloud cover which means there was evaporation happening. Today we reached a high of 35°F and has now dropped to 32°F. The dew point is sitting at 29.3° and relative humidity at 87%.

It looks like we have part of a cold front pushing down from the north in Ontario, Canada. This air mass is most likely continental Polar (cP). There is a storm system developing over parts of Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma right now as a warm front is coming up from the South. This system will not affect us in Eau Claire, WI at all. The forecast for the next few days looks a lot like the weather from the last few days.
