As you can see from the surface conditions map in figure 1, we'll be getting quite a bit of rain tonight and tomorrow. Figure 2 shows the water vapor in the atmosphere, and there is no shortage of it in our area. On the bright side, the occluded front that we can see where the cold and warm fronts are meeting usually means that a storm is faltering, so we will probably get rain sans storms here in Wisconsin.

Next week looks to be heading in the wrong direction, as far as the progression of seasons goes. As of now, it looks like the temperatures will remain cool with possibilities of snow. The forecast is a bit early, so hopefully that changes between now and then.
