Monday 3/11

Temperature: 31°F (High 31°F)
Humidity: 76%
Pressure: 1005.3 mb
Wind Speed: N 9 mph

Last night a major low pressure system moved through Eau Claire, and dumped nearly 6 inches of snow before morning (still not even to cancel classes though, of course). That low has since moved East into Northern Michigan. The front that is involved with this cyclone is producing major precipitation. If you compare the surface weather map and the water vapor satellite image, you can see just how much precipitation this storm is producing. So exciting!

As for the weather in Eau Claire today, we have had mostly nimbostratus clouds today producing very light snow.  The temperatures have hovered around 30F, and it will likely stay there overnight while the clouds blanket us. We'll hopefully be seeing sun around the middle of the week, and some warmer temperatures as well.
