We have haze and some thin, high cloudiness across the area at sunrise this morning. There was no additional rainfall overnight, which leaves us with a 24 hour total of 0.16" (4mm). My overnight low temperature here in the upper part of town has been 65.3F (18.5C).
Still not exactly a "cut-and-dried" weather scenario in the near future, with lingering disturbances in the upper-atmosphere continuing to drift across northern India. Pockets of colder air aloft, combined with summer heat which remains precariously close to us just down the hill, will continue to provide a decent chance of a couple of showers and/or thunderstorms popping up. As we saw yesterday, things can change very suddenly... from sunshine to a thunderstorm and back to sunshine again within an hour! So just be prepared for those potentially radical swings.
It would take a steep, strong ridge of high pressure to completely erase the thundershower risk from the forecast... but I don't see that during the coming week. The upper-level flow will remain marginally active, with occasional weak disturbances moving from west-to-east across the area. May sunshine will be plentiful, but a sudden period of thundershowers every now and then can't be ruled out. Temperatures are expected to climb back above normal as the week progresses...
