A stunning evening in progress... we have mostly clear skies just before sunset, as the snow on the mountains continues to melt away. I recorded a high temp of 62.2F (16.8C) early this afternoon as the sun took over.
The circulation around a weak upper-level disturbance to our northwest provided us with a mostly cloudy morning, along with a couple of hours of very strong and gusty winds. But it has also been responsible for pulling up a batch of very mild air from the plains of north India, which we've been able to enjoy all day. There have been some scattered rain and snow showers in the mountains to our north today, but as far as I am aware, there hasn't been so much as a drop of rain anywhere in the Dharamsala area. This system will still be in the area tomorrow, so we'll keep a standard 20% chance of a stray shower in the forecast, but that's about the extent of it.
A rather non-descript and uneventful weather scenario should dominate the latter half of the week, with a mix of sunshine and occasional clouds, along with relatively pleasant temps for the February/March transition. Unfortunately, there might be a new storm system brewing over the weekend... which will increase our rain chances by late Saturday and Sunday...
