We've had a good amount of snow today, about 5.7" in the last 24 hours.  It's 28 degrees which feels amazing compared to the last few days. We have a NE wind at 8mph.69% humidity and a 21 degree due point.

Here's a look at the whole country:

Snow is on the way!!!!

Back to the boring weather of Febuary. It's 32 right now with 83% humidity. Wind is WSW at 10mph. It's been partly cloudy all day.  There is a chance of us getting snow tonight, around 1 to 3"

Mardi Gras Weather

A very sunny day today! It is 27 degrees, feels like 16. The wind is SSE at 14 mph. 63% humidity with an 18 degree dewpoint.
Tomorrow should be above freezing and still sunny. Snow isn't expected until tomorrow night.


We still have a lot of the storms and flooding moving to the East in the Southern States:



As most everyone knows, it's Mardi Gras!!!!  New Orleans is doing suprisingly well for all the storms.  Right now it's 66 degrees there but they are expected to have some scattered thunderstorms around 8 tonight.

Maps

Here's a map showing water vapor, As you can see there is a lot more in the South where the storms have been, it is also too cold here for there to be that much water vapor in WI.

This map is from http://www.intellicast.com/National/Wind/JetStream.aspx. Shows those crazy fast jet streams where the storms are.


From the same site you can see the difference in Jet Streams compared to Wind.

Not to much snow around here as you can see below. This map is from http://weather.unisys.com/surface/sfc_map.php?inv=0&t=cur&region=mw.
