Thursday 1/31/2013

Getting the motivation to walk to class today was incredibly difficult because of the cold and wind.  It is currently 2 degrees, but feels like -18. Humidity is at 84% and winds are WNW at 18mph, averaging about 20mph for the day. We are expected to reach a high of 9 around 1pm and have some snow by 2pm.  I also suggest you skip the bar hopping tonight! We have a chill advisory starting at 6pm until tomorrow at noon.  Tempuratures will reach negative numbers, -13 is the excpected low but is said to feel like -27.

 I noticed this morning that there was a little bit of snow on the cars. The picture below shows the estimated precipitation, we ended up getting .07" of percipitation yesterday and we are expected to only get about a half inch today.



Overall, this entire week has been crazy as far as weather.  Monday night it rained resulting in ridiculously Icy sidewalks.  It was so bad, UWEC had cancelled class until 9:30am, which I didn't know until I had showed up for my 8am. Tuesday we reached a high of 35 and just a week before that we were in the negatives all day. Gotta love Wisconsin winters.
