to snow or not to snow!

Today was pretty cold walking to class but it has been colder.  My forecast for today was not too far off I was correct in the amount of snow will not be as significant as the amount predicted for Eau Claire.

When I was wondering outside...like I normally do on cold days...I felt the wind was coming from the West while crossing the bridge over the Chippewa river.


The current conditions from the AccuWeather, are:

Temperature: 15 degrees F
Wind: 6 mph coming from the North West
Real Feel: 7 degrees F
Dew point: 1.9 degrees F.
Cloud Cover: some cloud cover  and partly sunny
Precipitation: none yet
Barometric Pressure: 30.44 and decreasing

Here is the current wind conditions.  I know we were taught that the tropical wind coming from mexico  will bring in the storm closer to Eau Claire so we shall see if that has enough power to reach us with as much force as predicted.

So tonight there is a possible chance of snow later tonight or early tomorrow morning.  The weather today will not be that exciting.  simply put cold and some wind.
