Today was a bright day around the Chippewa Valley area. The sun was out and shinning bright and there was a gust of wind coming out of the northwest. The sun was out all day here and was only accompanied by some clouds early in the afternoon. These clouds were high in the atmosphere and didn't hinder the brightness of the sun. The wind was steady all day out of the northwest, so wind chill played a factor sweeping along the Chippewa river.

Overall compared to yesterday, you can see that the cold front has continued to move southward. There is a high pressure system over North Dakota right now and we can expect that to move west in the next few days. The isobars on this radar are not very close so the wind should not be to much of a factor tomorrow. There is a stationary front along the Rocky Mountains that could make its way towards Wisconsin. 

This is a surface data map of the midwest. As you can see from the Dakota's all the way to Michigan, the winds are coming out of the northwest between 1 to 5 mph. There is also no clouds over Wisconsin a all. One side not is that to the far west part of this map you can see a shift in the wind direction as it is coming out of the east and there is a complete cloud cover. This could be the start of a storm cell that would be pushed to the lower half of Wisconsin over the next few days.
