Greetings from Phoenix, AZ. I am here for a conference for the next couple days. I am lucky to be escaping the nasty weather which will be moving in to Wisconsin over the next few days. Saturday was a great day with mostly clear skies and bright sunshine. When I took off from the Eau Claire airport early this morning the wind had picked up and the skies were filled with clouds. The ride from Chicago to Phoenix was bumpier than the average flight. I assume this was associated not only with the mountains we flew over but the variations in pressure throughout the atmosphere.
My forecast for this weekend was fair. Not much in the form of precipitation fell today from the reports I got from back home.
A large area of low pressure is moving in to the Great Lakes Region bringing with it a vast mix of precipitation. The experts believe the system will move northeast before swinging to the south east following the trough in the pressure. Expect a mix of precipitation over the next couple days with strong winds related to the pressure gradient.
Mean while I will be enjoying mid to high 70 degree temperatures here in Arizona...
