it is mostly clear, as the eastern sky brightens early this morning. we've had a low temp of 61.0F (16.1C), with no additional rainfall overnight... our thundershower last evening between 6:30 and 7:30pm delivered 0.21" (5mm) of rain. total rainfall in the past nine days has been just 0.69" (1.8cm)!!
the humidity reading this morning is 67%, which is fairly average for the last several days. although deep monsoon moisture is long gone, having been swept well to our south and east more than a week ago, our central weather story continues to be the lingering low-level moisture that remains stuck all along the front ranges of the himalayas. we still have an east-southeast flow in the very lowest layers of the atmosphere which isn't allowing this moisture to escape. so... every day by noon, after the sun has had a chance to heat things up a bit, that latent moisture in the air condenses out into clouds and patchy fog, with isolated brief light showers roaming about. frankly, i see nothing in the computer model guidance to indicate that this pattern is going to dramatically change anytime soon.
temperatures are stuck as well... with no significantly cooler autumn-like temperatures expected just yet...
MONDAY: a mix of sunshine and clouds. some periods of fog in the PM, along with the risk of a passing shower.
high: 23C (73F)
MONDAY NIGHT: chance of a brief evening shower, then becoming mostly clear after dark.
low: 17C (62F)
TUESDAY: partly sunny skies... just a slight chance of a PM shower.
high: 23C (73F)
WEDNESDAY: partly sunny and pleasant.
high: 23C (74F)
THURSDAY: sunny to partly cloudy skies.
high: 23C (73F)
FRIDAY: more of the same mix of sun and some clouds.
high: 22C (72F)
