A collective rejoice can be heard around the Chippewa Valley, as spring makes a bold statement today! A warm front is currently pushing through, as temperatures are expected to peak around 70°F today. High pressure systems are currently quite prominent over much of the country, so clear skies and somewhat windy conditions seem like the current trend for most places. Once this warm front pushes through we should expect to see a bit of a cooling, with temperatures hovering right around 60°F for the rest of the work week, and falling to around 50°F heading into Sunday. Rain showers are also predicted for the entirety of the weekend. All in all this week is a welcome change from the recent trends!
