The sun is shining through a layer of haze and dust early this morning... and we also have just a few scattered clouds in the area. My overnight low temp has been warm -- 72.3F (22.4C) here in the upper part of town. There has been no rainfall overnight, nor since Saturday morning, leaving us with a May total of just 1.01" (2.5cm) thus far.
Upper-level data this morning is showing some lingering pools of colder air aloft over the western Himalayan region... which could be a concern for some developing cloudiness and perhaps a random thundershower somewhere over the mountains today. But other than that, warmer air will continue to stream into northern India from the surface into the mid- and upper-levels of the atmosphere as the week goes on. This scenario should provide generally stable conditions and keep us under the influence of the strong end-of-May sun. It also looks like this haze and dust will remain trapped... at least until we can muster up a good rain to clean thing up.
Computer models are showing temperatures going nowhere but UP this week. We rarely get a string of 90F/32C days here in McLeod, but that may just happen between now and Friday. Unless we get lucky and receive an unexpected rainfall, overnight temperatures will be on the rise as well, making for some uncomfortable sleeping weather...
