it is 54F (12.2C) just before sunrise this morning, with mostly clear skies. despite a few patches of high clouds, it looks like we are in line for lots of sunshine and some rapid warming this morning.
for the past 5 days in a row, high temps have remained below 70F (21C), which is well below normal for early april. but today we stand a very good chance of breaking out of that. significant warming is occurring both at the surface and aloft, ahead of the next storm system, so we should be able to enjoy some more comfortable temperatures... if only for a day or two.
yet another strong branch of the jetstream will bring in a brand new upper-level disturbance starting late tomorrow. that means we'll see clouds thicken up again, and shower and thunderstorm chances increase... especially for sunday and monday. there are indications that this system will have more moisture to work with than the previous two... so i don't think it is out of the question for us to pick up some fairly decent rainfall (greater than 1cm/0.40") during that 48 hour period. temperatures will also drop again early next week. as usual... stay tuned for updates as things evolve...
