it has been one heck of a moody day. clouds. bursts of sunshine. sporadic (generally light) rain showers. and all of that occuring simultaneously on a couple of occasions. i recorded a high temp of 55.6F (13.1C), with a wet rain gauge, but nothing measurable since before sunrise this morning.
i've been very surprised all day that the bulk of the precipitation stayed generally north and northeast of us, along the higher mountain ranges. waves of energy passing through in the upper atmosphere will continue to drift through northern india between now and tomorrow (wed) night, which will stir up more showers (and thunder?) from time to time, and still perhaps a period or two of moderate to heavy rain. tomorrow morning will be busy for tibetans and many foreigners as well, since it's the first day of losar... unfortunately, it could be a wet morning.
there will be a smaller chance of rain as we approach the end of the week, but the weather pattern doesn't look totally settled, which means limited sunshine, and the risk of an occasional shower. temperatures will remain on the mild side... but still not as warm as we'd like for the end of february...
TUESDAY NIGHT: variable clouds, with a good chance of a period or two of rain. thunder possible as well.
low: 8C (47F)
(WED) FIRST DAY OF LOSAR: partly to mostly cloudy skies. rain likely at times through the day.
high: 12C (54F)

morning low: 8C (46F)
daytime high: 13C (55F)
FRIDAY: partly cloudy. a decent day.
