Nothing too exciting today

The snowfall accumulation from last wasn't bad. There wasn't even any snow on the roads this morning.

Today's weather forecast is fairly boring; which is fine, it's better than a ton of snow.
Today high is 30F, with humidity at 64%, and a dew point of 19F. Looking at the surface map we can see overcast,  and winds coming from the NNE around 10-20 mph, with a wind chill of 22F. We can also see that the low pressure cells have moved more to the east since yesterday. The cold front from these systems is located all the way out in the Atlantic by now.



The jet stream map shows that winds are following a linear pattern throughout the southern parts of the states. We can also see that the cold cP winds from Canada are coming down throught the middle of the states and the cold air is pushing into the Atlantic as well.


We can see the overall wind movement at the surface due to the low pressure cells and jet stream patterns. We are experiencing decent winds compared the rest of the states



This water vapor map illustrates the water vapor in the air form the low pressure cells in the northeast. We have slight water vapor over us. The forecast says that light snow falls are possible due to these conditions; however, I don't think we will be experiencing any sort of precipitation today. 


Tonight's forecast calls for a low around 17F, with mostly cloudy skies and NNE winds around 5-10 mph.

Tomorrown's forecast looks relatively same as today's. The high is expected to be around 29F, with partly sunny skies, and NNE winds around 10 mph.
