Will spring ever come?!?!

Well the last two days have had decent weather compared to the rest of this season. Yesterday was exceptionally nice! Yesterday's high was 44F and everyone was outside walking their dogs!! Felt like spring was on it's way.

Today's high was 42F, with the current temperature at 41F. Humidity is at 65%, with a dew point of 30F. Here we can see a low pressure system located just north of Oklahoma. We can see a warm front moving up and a stationary front in northern Texas.


Looking at the jet stream map we can see where the two air masses are coming together. We can also see that this is where the precipitation is taking place.


With this we can see that winds are coming from the NE around 10-15 mph, with overcast. Today we experienced precipitation in the form light rain in the afternoon hours. This is to be expected as we know that winds coming from the east carry moist, warm air. Also the jet stream is colliding with adjacent air masses; all of which are causing precipitation.



Tonight's wind, as well as tomorrow's wind will continue to come from the NE around 10-15 mph. This will continue to being precipitation in the form of rain. Tonight we are forecasted to have rain with a possibility of thunderstorms before midnight, with a low around 36F. Tomorrow we are also forecasting rain with a high near 40F.
