Wednesday's Observation

It was snowing as expected this morning. Today's temperature is 34 deg F with a wind chill of 27 deg F. The dew point is at 28 deg F. The barometer is at 1016.9 mb. There is a wind from the North at 8 mph. The skies were 100% covered with nimbostratus clouds today dropping several inches of large sticky snow flakes (beter known to meterologists as sector plate ice crystals).  As we can see in the map from UNISYS weather the center of the low system has moved off to Northern Illinois indicated by the circularr motion of the wond directions.
This map from the Weather Channel confirms that the low pressure system has indeed moved off to the east.

I predict that the overcast skies and snowy weather should clear out of the area by tomorrow night.
