it is mostly cloudy at sunrise this morning, and i'm recording a mild overnight low temp of 49.6F (9.8C). rainfall since last evening has been just 0.02" (less than 1mm) here in the upper part of town.
very nice to have some milder air in place... but it won't really mean much due to the fact that we've been losing our sunshine little by little the last couple of days. the storm system moving in from central asia will have gradually greater influence on our weather between now and wednesday... increasing our chances of rain. we're in for an extended period of damp weather, with even a period or two of heavy rain not out of the question during this coming week. a couple of the computer models are showing around 5cm (2") of rain in our vicinity, mainly between late today and wednesday evening... so we shall see if that becomes reality or not.
as we've been talking about a lot recently... the warmer air in all but the highest levels of the atmosphere will keep the snow line well above us... but very heavy snow is going to be likely this week above 2500m (8200ft). here at our elevation, temperatures will be in the range of normal for a late february wet spell...
