Warm Air on the Way

Observation time: 6:45 pm

Precipitation: None
Sky conditions: Clear
Wind: 9 mph from the east
Temperature: 11 degrees

This water vapor satellite image shows quite a bit of action in the northwest and southeast. Some of that moist air from the south will be coming our way tomorrow, and that means a chance for snow or some ice depending on just how warm our temperatures get.


Today's Rant

Today was even warmer than yesterday with highs in the 20's. It was a much needed break for many as we finally seem to have found (at least for now) some relief from the cold. There really wasn't anything too exciting to report weather-wise today, as it was an overall mild day with little to no wind and clear skies. One can only hope that this trend might continue.

Forecast for Tomorrow

Tomorrow's wind forecast makes for potentially even nicer weather than we saw today. Shifting from the east to the south, warm air will be on its way to our area. We may see some moderate gusts at times, but wind chill won't be nearly as much of a factor as if the winds were from the north. Temperatures should be warmer than today again, possibly reaching around 30 degrees. The warm, moist air should bring some cloud cover with it, and depending on just how warms it gets, there is always the potential from some snow and/or ice.
