Beautiful and Warm (kinda)

I was very excited today to see that the temperature has increased. It has been a brutal few weeks here.  Current temperature is 26F, which is like summer time comparatively. The "feels like" temperature says 15F but I think it feels warmer.  My face isn't frozen. 



Temperatures all over the Midwest have increased.  Below is a map that indicates the temperature change in the past 24 hours. 





I have added this Doppler Radar because I have never seen one so empty.  There are apparently no places around the U.S that are having any weather related issues.  There is a small portion of North Dakota that shows light rain. 



Winds are around 10-20 mph in the Midwest.  There are a few areas in southern Wisconsin that the wind speed is higher maybe between 20-30 mph.  The winds now is about 13mph WSW. 

The next week should be really enjoyable.  The temperatures should get to a whopping 48F by early next week.  Spring time should be coming but I have a feeling we will get hit with some additional cold days before we can rely on that. 

This map shows that even though it seems warm to us, that the temperature is still cooler than average. 


Enjoy the weather while you can.  Still make sure you bring a jacket today and the rest of the week in case something crazy happens.
