I know you are all wondering where the clearing conditions and warm weather I called for is. Have a little faith in me, I predicted that thunderstorm last night didn't I? I promise the sun will peak out soon.
The pressure system that caused last night thunderstorm is currently centered in the very Southwest corner of Wisconsin. Yesterday we were on the leading right edge of the low pressure system, which caused ESE winds. Currently we are on the backside of the low pressure system, which is causing the NE winds today. Look to the West of Eau Claire into Minnesota, the circle at the base of the weather barbs are not filled in. This means clear skies and is being caused by the high pressure system. Here is a better look below.
I am inclined to think that skies will begin clearing somewhere in the 2:30 pm to 4 pm window and skies will be mostly clear by 7pm tonight. Along with clearing skies temperatures will rise slightly, however they will not reach the high I predicted for today due late clearing. Overnight expect wind direction to shift as well, first to due North and then to due East over the course of tomorrow. Despite clear conditions tomorrow, temperatures will be cooler than today or yesterday due to the high pressure system that will move in and whip cool winds from Canada into Wisconsin. Expect mid to upper 50's (F) for the high.
