Wednesday: 3/18/15

7:30 P.M.
Current Temperature: 42° F 
Humidity: 30 %
Wind Direction: SW
Wind Speed: 3 mph 
Sky Conditions: Cloudy

Today was very similar to yesterday, the temperature remained in the 40s and there was a little wind to cool the air.  The sky was cloudy and I couldn't tell what type of clouds were in the sky because the entire sky was covered.  There is not much wind today as a high pressure system is sitting about an hour west of Eau Claire.  Tomorrow the temperature is expected to again be around 45°F, with little winds as nothing serious is headed our way.

There is some thunderstorm activity in Arkansas, as spring moves closer and warm and cold air fronts collide this type of weather will increase.  As warm weather coming up from the Gulf of Mexico and colder weather from the North resulted in some rain and storm activity in Arkansas.
