wed pm. 05.25.10

still lots of people around town talking about how they can't remember it EVER being this hot here. it was 36c/97f down near the dalai lama's temple this afternoon, and my high temp way up near the mountaineering center and tushita was over 32c/90f. thankfully, a change is on the horizon. there will be a rapid increase in humidity on thursday, along with an increase in clouds and thunderstorm chances, as a fast-moving upper-level disturbance dives southeast into kashmir. muggy and potentially thundery weather will continue on friday, but more comfortable temperatures will filter in, and remain for most of the weekend. keep an eye to the sky in anticipation of some rapidly developing storms if you plan to be out and about on thursday and friday...

WEDNESDAY NIGHT: clear to partly cloudy skies. very uncomfortable sleeping weather.
low: 24c (76F)

THURSDAY: becoming partly cloudy, more humid, with a good chance of some thunderstorms developing in the afternoon.
high: 32C (89F)

FRIDAY: partly to mostly cloudy with a few showers or thunderstorms still possible. turning cooler.
high: 28C (82F)

SATURDAY: mostly sunny and pleasantly warm. still looks like the nicest day of the week.
high: 28C (83F)

SUNDAY: lots of sunshine, but starting to warm up again...
high: 30C (86F)

MONDAY: dry and warmer with plenty of sunshine.
high: 31C (88F)
