we have mostly clear skies at sunset this evening. it's been a dry day, with a high temp of 67.3F (19.6F), and humidity remaining very close to 40%.
the term "partly cloudy" was invented for days such as this... there has been plenty of sunshine to go around, but quite a few patches of clouds difting through as well. there were even one or two isolated showers up towards lahaul and spiti during the maximum heating period of the early to mid-afternoon hours. there has been a weak upper-level disturbance drifting through during the past 12 hours or so, and that's the only thing that kept us from wall-to-wall sunshine.
the most consistently dry and calm airmass in many months is settling in now, thanks to a moderate northwesterly flow throughout the middle and upper atmosphere. this pattern will present us with lots of sunshine, low humidity, and seasonably cool to mild temperatures through the end of the week. classic october... toasty in the direct mid-day sun, but chilly at night. layers required!
