It was an extremely cold day today in the Chippewa Valley area. Although the actual temperature was mostly in the teens throughout the day, the wind chill blowing out of the north and northwest played a major factor with the windchill. Most of the day it was blowing in the high teens and this caused for negative wind chill temperatures. Throughout the day we saw some high clouds in the atmosphere, but it was mostly sunny. With the winds blowing so hard we can expect it to blow these frigid temperature system out of the area and are looking at a major warm up these next few days. Hopefully by the weekend we see 40 degree weather.
Currently you can see that Iowa has a low pressure system over it while it is sandwiched between two high pressure systems. One to the north and one to the south. We are experiencing that cold temperatures that go with the high pressure system to the north. You can see way to the west side of the screen over Montana that there is a warm front moving in. With the continually northwest wind blowing, that warm front will be blown right over Wisconsin.
This is a satellite image of the moisture in the air. There is much moisture in the air south of Wisconsin while average over the state. Without any large quants being blown down from Canada and the jet stream, we won't be experiencing any snow fall today or tomorrow. Hopefully that moisture stays to the south so we don't get anymore snow this winter.
