We have a mix of haze, sunshine, and scattered clouds in the area this evening. I recorded a high temp of 85.6F (29.8C) just before 3:00pm, and there has been no rainfall again today.
There was indeed a pocket or two of colder air lingering in the upper-atmosphere today, which has led to some cloud development off and on. Still, it appears that the instability has remained below the threshold necessary for the development of any thundershower action. As we progress through the week, warmer air arriving aloft should keep things generally stable, and that means the chance of significant rainfall should stay rather low. However, the steep angle of the sun will continue to be counterbalanced by thick haze at times, along with a few clouds here and there. Until we get some decent rain, we get to share this haze, dust and pollution with our neighbors to the south.
Pleasantly warm temperatures of the last couple of days will have a great potential to become less pleasant, as our gradual warm-up continues. The upcoming May/June transition should feature the warmest temps of the year -- actually running a bit above normal for this, the height of the summer season.
