The never-ending winter continues. Today was a nother cold and dreary day. It was overcast all day, with low stratus clouds, sometimes producing some light precipitation. For everyone who is hoping that this weather will finally improve, don't hold your breath. There is another flurry of precipitation coming tonight, most likely only rain, it shouldn't get cold enough for snow. As you can see, directly to our west is a stationary front. Directly behind that is a large high pressure system that would clear some of this dreariness up, but that stationary front is keeping it in place.
If you hate this weather as much as I do, you can thank the jet stream. You can see that from the way it is positioned in, Eau Claire is sitting at the bottom of the trough. The divergence in the upper atmosphere is creating a void for the surface air to rush into. That air condenses into clouds and creates this consistent bad weather.
