March 30 - Spring showers came just in time!

I don't think I've ever been so happy to see rain in my whole life! Yesterday was nice and clear again, today it rained, like I thought it would.

In a bit I will post some cool pictures from yesterday. We went to Marshfield for an early easter, and there was a nice "god sky" (sun shines though the clouds). You could definitely see that there was unstability in the atmosphere as the night approached, many layers of different clouds.

Today was overcast, raining pretty hard this morning then slowing down to a drizzle.

Temperature: 41°F
Dewpoint: 40°F
Humidity: 100%
Wind:  4mph W
Pressure: 1010.9 mb

 As you can see by the surface map today we have some precipitation approaching due to the low pressure system moving in from the north. That system will bring in cooler temperatures and possibly snow if the moisture remains in air.


Skew-T plot from Minneapolis, MN. Shows how its raining there.
