it's mostly cloudy at sunset this evening... after a day where clouds were the dominant feature, and sunshine was more scarce than it has been since the very beginning of the month. i recorded a high temp of just 69.6F (20.9C)... the coolest since a week ago today.
despite all the clouds, there was no rainfall today... at least that i have heard about. our upper-level disturbance continues to spin over northern pakistan, but is drifting ever-so-slowly to the east. this weak system will remain in the area for another 36 hours or so, and could yet kick off some showers and perhaps a thunderstorm. humidity remains quite low (around 30-35%), which is an indication of how little available moisture there is to work with.
looking ahead a bit further, i don't see a dramatic and definitive turn to a totally sunny and quiet weather pattern. the atmosphere will remain a bit unsettled and unstable right into the weekend. that means we'll see a mixed bag of sun, clouds and the potential for some brief, passing showers. temperatures will remain fairly close to normal...
