clear and milder... (pm.18.nov.11)>

yet another nearly perfect november evening in progress.  we have clear skies at sunset, with temps falling from a high of 63.5F (17.5C), which occurred around 1:30pm.

today could most likely go in the TOP TEN LIST of sunniest days of 2011.  there was only meager development of a few scruffy cumulus clouds over the mountains this afternoon, otherwise, we had nearly wall-to-wall sunshine.  a weak upper-level disturbance will be passing by well to our north during the coming 24 hours or so, but it will go virtually unnoticed around here.  after it passes, a ridge of high pressure in the mid- and upper-levels will build across northern india, and that should keep us firmly enveloped in a fair weather pattern all the way into the middle of next week.

temperatures are already starting to slowly moderate, and it looks like we'll be enjoying some slightly warmer than average temps, in addition to all the sunshine, during the next several days... at least.
