The current conditions in Eau Claire WI: Temp. - 50°F, Humidity - 86%, Wind - NNW @ 5 mph., and cloudy skies. The temperature touched close to the 60° mark a bit before noon before the wind picked up out of the north, dropping the temperature considerably. An upper level low pressure system was the cause of a few isolated showers later in the afternoon. High pressure should move back into the area leading to stable conditions and sunny skies with temperatures rising into the 70s. The next chance of rain is on Friday. The jet stream today is a lot more active and meridional which means most of the U.S. is in a trough experiencing cooler weather from the Midwest to the West Coast.
