It's been warmning up in our region the last couple days. Last week we experienced a pretty intense precipitation event in the form of wet, heavy snowfall. This was due to the jet stream pattern. Cold air was being brought down from north and warm air was being brought up from the south. The colliding of those two air masses proved wicked for our region.
As of yesterday, weather conditions have been warming up. Yesterday's high was 67F with partly cloudy skies.
Today is even warmer with the high reaching 73F and feeling like 73F. Todays humidity is at 23% with a dew point of 33F. Wind is coming from the WNW at 2mph. The barometric reading is at 33.05 in. Looking at the surface map below we can see conditions are due to the high pressure system located in MN. A high pressure system indicates clear skies and no forms of precipitation. This is creating clear skies that are allowing the solar raditation to warm us up.
Looking at the jet stream map we can see we are no longer in the midst of the colliding air masses we were under last week.
Tomorrow is forecasted to be another nice day with sunny skies and highs around 73F!
