Wednesday, May 11th

I was semi-accurate in my predictions for today. It rained only a little bit, but definitely not the thunderstorms I was expecting. Currently, conditions are fair. It is 64 degrees and only a 2 mph SE wind. It is hard to tell what type of clouds are in the sky, but I'm guessing it is similar to what it has been all day - altostratus with some cirrus. These clouds along with the SE should be producing some rain beginning within the next few hours. I predict that tomorrow will be similar to today again, but with prominent rain.

Tuesday, May 10th

I was wrong in my prediction I made yesterday. We have yet to receive any precipitation today. Currently it is 75 degrees with fair conditions. There is a 13mph ESE wind, but is gusting up to 21 mph. The sun is shining brightly, however there are some high altostratus clouds. Although the weather is beautiful right now, there is some strong precipitation headed our way. We can expect thunderstorms this evening, and tomorrow morning as well.

Monday, May 9

It is downpouring out there today! Currently, it is 54 degrees with a powerful 34-38 mph wind from the ESE. Crazy weather! The clouds are stratus, but earlier this morning my roommate told me there was a wall cloud! So jealous that she got to see that and not me! But a wall cloud means business, and business is definitely what Mother Nature is giving Eau Claire the rest of today and tomorrow. Tomorrow will be similar to today, thunderstorms and strong winds. It will be warmer tomorrow as well.

Monday, May 2nd

Currently it is a chilly 35 degrees. I can't tell what type of clouds there are because it's so dark, but earlier today they were definitely stratus clouds with zero sunshine, sadly. So far May has not been meeting my high expectations. I predict that there will be similar conditions tomorrow - chilly, but some sunshine.

Tuesday!

Currently it is 41 degrees, however with the strong NE wind it feels more like 34 degrees. It is also raining and there is complete cloud coverage. I believe they are stratus clouds. We can expect rain for a majority of this week, sadly. However, temperatures should increase by the end of this week.

Monday

Currently it is a mild 44 degrees with a 5 mph NE wind. It is mostly cloudy and I believe they are altocumulus. Because we have this NE wind along with this type of cloud, we can expect precipitation tomorrow. Also, based on today's observations, I'm definitely not looking forward to the rest of this week with the straight up shit weather coming! Really Mother Nature?! More snow and cold weather? Cool, not. However, it provides for some awesome observations! We can expect a rain/snow mixture tomorrow, and cold temperatures.

Tuesday

My forecast for today is correct so far. Conditions are very similar to yesterday. The sun is shining brightly and it is 58 degrees with a mild Southern wind. We are currently in a high pressure system and there is zero cloud coverage. There is still a chance for some showers later on tonight. Tomorrow will still be relatively warm, however we can expect showers for a majority of the day and into the night.
