May 6, 2013

Current Conditions
Sunny
Temperature: 60 degrees F
Dew Point: 45 degrees F
Wind Speed: 4 MPH
Wind Direction: West
Humidity: 57%

After receiving over 7 inches of snow last Thursday and even more rain after that over the weekend, temperatures have warmed up again to normal for this time of year.  Over the weekend I traveled to St. Louis, Missouri for a wedding and it seemed the cloudy and rainy weather followed me there.  Over the weekend it rained for a majority of the time and temperatures were colder than even here in Eau Claire. Currently there is a stationary front over much of Wisconsin and a large pocket of high pressure.  This should mean that the sunny warm conditions should remain for the next couple days at least.  The area of high pressure is causing a divergence in the jet stream right over Minnesota.  Areas of low pressure and a stationary front over the Rockies right now should form a line of precipitation that could reach us later in the week.  For now we will enjoy the beautiful weather in our area.
