skies are partly cloudy this evening, as this afternoon's thundershowers have drifted off to the southeast. we've had a very very typical early june day with a mix of hazy sunshine, a few clouds, and a period of thundershowers between 2 and 4:30pm which delivered 0.04" (1mm) of rain at the top of mcleod ganj. i recorded a high temp of 84.7F (29.3C), which was the warmest since the 19th of may.
a huge area of high pressure aloft continues to dominate the weather pattern to our west... bumping up against the western himalayas. this scenario is keeping things calm and peaceful for the most part, the exception being the scattered summertime thundershowers which pop up over the mountains on the majority of afternoons during this time of year. there will be no significant change in the general pattern into the weekend, other than the fact that the mid-levels of the atmosphere may stabilize further, which could stifle even our PM thunder potential by thursday. the haze will continue to be a factor, dimming the full intensity of the june sunshine.
temperatures should remain near their current levels, or even warm up another degree or two... keeping us pretty close to the warmest weather of the season. some uncomfortable nights ahead...
MONDAY NIGHT: a random thundershower still possible this evening, then becoming mostly clear. rather warm.
low: 22C (72F)
TUESDAY: mostly sunny AM, partly cloudy PM with a chance of a brief thundershower. very warm.
high: 29C (85F)
