Currently the temperature in Eau Claire is 54 degrees Fahrenheit with 7mph hour S winds. Although the surface is showing clear skies when I look at the sky I see a scattered sky with cirrostratus clouds taking form. What does this mean for tonight and tomorrow? Well tonight these cirrostratus clouds are going to grow much thicker and in effect trap much of the heat from escaping into the upper atmosphere. This means we are in for a nice warm night. However the the current S wind direction and cirrostratus clouds are indicating that we should expect precipitation in about 15-20 hours in our future.
I would also like to point out the high latitude the jetstream is currently focused. Due it's northly position warm air from the Southern U.S. was able to make its way to Eau Claire, resulting in a 56 degree Fahrenheit today!
