Tuesday's Observations

Ahh the beginning of March it is getting so much closer to the warmer weather that I personally enjoy. Why I live and go to school in the midwest is beyond me since I dislike the cold and neverending snow. Anyways on to today's weather.

Today's temperature according to the Phillips Metstation is 40.8 deg F with a wind chill at 34.5 deg F. The dewpoint is at 23.2 deg F. There is a wind at 7 mph blowing from the southwest. The barometer is at 1015.6 mb which is a little lower than yesterday. The skies are about 30% covered with some cirrocumulus clouds. This map from the Weather Channel shows that Wisconsin is currently in the edge of a high pressure system however there is a cold front moving in from across the Dakotas.

I forecast that it will be cold for the next two or three days as the cold front moves across the state and that there will be a warm up on the way (somewhere around Friday) with warmer jet stream airs coming up from the Gulf of Mexico.
