Saturday Recap

Who's ready for some sunshine? That's what this week has in store for us. Temperatures are still low, but at least we will see some snow melting away over the next few days.

Yesterday's high temperature was 33 degrees F at 3:45 pm (12 degrees below average) and the low was 24 degrees F at 7:05 am (1 degree below average). The wind yesterday was coming out of the N at 16 mph with gusts up to 25 mph. These northern winds had a lot to do with the cold temperatures.

On the following map, you can see the large amounts of precipitation that hit the states surrounding us yesterday.

The precipitation was in the form of snow. The states with the greatest amount of precipitation did not receive the large amounts of accumulation that had been forecasted. As predicted, though, accumulation did not occur north of I-90 in Wisconsin. Only the southwestern-most counties of the state received much of anything at all. The rest of the state just received higher winds.
