Today's Rant
Today has turned out to be very much like yesterday in terms of temperature and not much action to speak of. We are seeing much clearer skies however as we find ourselves in the middle of a big trough in the jet stream. While we might be seeing high pressure and nice conditions, the same can't be said for other places. Off to our east, a cold front is bringing rain and snow all along the east coast, while off to the west things are relatively quiet right now, although there are several areas of low pressure that could make things a little more interesting in our area in the next couple of days.
Forecast for Tomorrow
Prevailing winds should be coming from the south tomorrow with a center of rotation sitting over Minnesota. This should mean that temperatures will be a little bit warmer, but the southern air will also be providing moisture for the back side of the trough we are currently in. The low pressure building to our west will be moving in as the trough slides towards the east coast, and things could get pretty messy. This system should be bringing rain as well as snow depending on where exactly the freezing line ends up, but right now it looks as though we might luck out and only see the rain.
