Still enjoying the weather

Still pretty nice out today.  Quite a bit more clouds in the morning and early afternoon but still warm. The present temperature is 57F.  There is a possibility that the temperature may get to 61F.  It will be partly cloudy tonight with a low of 34F.  Winds WNW up to  at 15-20 mph.  The wind makes it feel a little more chilly than the 57F. 




This is  the very powerful Tropical Cyclone Pam.  Currently at category 5 storm.  It will weaken to a category 4 as it moves south.   The South Pacific island nation of Vanuatu is taking an extreme pounding from the 165 mph winds of Category 5 Tropical Cyclone Pam, one of the strongest tropical cyclones ever recorded in the waters east of Australia.

There are still storms over the middle south area.  This area continues to be under advisement for thunderstorms and heavy rainfall. 



This water vapor map shows the mid south and south with a lot of water vapor in the air.  It is very rainy in these regions.  There is very little moisture in the air over the Midwest.  Hopefully this will last a little longer. It seems the rain in the southern states is not going anywhere. 


Everything is pretty mellow in the Eau Claire area.  We are experiencing very little wind.  In the southern states, indications of wind are congruent with the weather they are having there.
