Right now in Eau Claire it is 37 degrees F with overcast skies. It has been cloudy and chilly all day (which is really disappointing for the beginning of May). The winds are mild coming from the North at 3 mph. The sky is completley covered with stratocumulus clouds so I don't think we will be seeing any precipitation within the next 24 hours. For tomorrow, I think we will see clearer skies with higher temperatures than today. The wind should stay consistent over the next day.

Currently in Eau Claire it is 57 degrees F with moderate winds, 12 MPH, coming from the East. The sky is clear right now but the wind direction is supposed to change to the NE, which means that we will most likely experience some precipitation within the next 24 hours. Today was very nice out, the high was 68 degrees F with blue skies all day! For tomorrow, I expect rain throughout the day with cloudy skies because of the direction of the wind and the wind speed. I also think the temperature will drop and not be as warm as it was today.

My previous prediction was somewhat correct. We have recieved precipitation since last night but not as much as I expected. Currently in Eau Claire it is 32 degrees F with an overcast sky. It has stopped snowing/raining for now. There are mild winds coming from the NE at 7 mph. Earlier this evening it started lightly snowing but none of it was sticking to the ground. Now you can start to see the snow outside but it is not nearly as much as forecasters were expecting. Because of the current weather I think it will snow more tonight but clear up tomorrow morning when the winds switch from NE to NW.

Today's weather was better than the weekend's. This weekend was chilly with even some flurries on Saturday. Currently in Eau Claire it is 40 degrees F with mild winds at 6 mph coming from the NE. Cloud coverage is around 90% of stratus clouds. The winds are coming from the NE with mostly cloudy skies, which could mean that severe weather conditions are moving in. I predict that over the next day we will experience some crazy weather for April, a snowstorm. I think we can expect snowfall/rain into Wednesday morning.

Today I am in Washington, DC for the Experimental Biology Conference. It was very nice today; sunny all day with about 10% cloud coverage. Currently in Washington, DC it is 72 degrees F with the dew point at 52 degrees. There is mild wind here, approximately 5 mph coming from the WSW which I would think would be coming from the Continental Tropical Air Mass. Over the past few hours of the night the clouds have increased to about 75% of nimbostratus clouds. I expect there to be rain within the next few hours and that tomorrow be cloudy as well.

Currently is it 49 degrees F on campus with the dew point at 29. There are also very mild winds on campus coming from the NW. The sky is clear with no clouds. Earlier today there were a few clouds, about 15% coverage of cumulohumilis clouds. The highest temperature during the day was about 60 degrees. It was very nice spring weather! For tomorrow, I predict that it will be warmer out but not as warm is today, possibly with more clouds.

In Eau Claire, WI, it is currently 36 degrees F with moderate winds making it a little chilly outside. The wind is about 9 mph coming from the WNW and the dew point is at 19 degrees F. There was no precipitation today other than a few sprinkles during the early morning. The sky is relatively clear, only about 10% cloud coverage. Since the wind is coming from the NW, I do not predict any precipitation within the next 24 hours. Tomorrow we should see more of the same, partly cloudy skies with temperatures in the high 40s.
