It's another gorgeous, sunny, warm June morning -- the kind of morning we've enjoyed many times this summer season in McLeod Ganj. There has been no rainfall overnight, and I've recorded a low temp of 75.0F (23.9C).
It appears that our atmosphere will remain fairly stable again today, and most likely tomorrow as well, as general high pressure continues to dominate the pattern in the mid- and upper-levels across northwest India. Sunshine should be plentiful during the AM hours, but we'll likely see a build-up of afternoon clouds. Thundershowers have been non-existent during the past couple of days, but keep in mind the risk of some development higher up in the mountains Temperatures should be in the neighborhood of 90F both today and Friday.
I'm still keeping a very close eye on all the computer model data for the weekend into early next week. Tropical moisture is now as close as Nepal and the eastern half of Uttar Pradesh, and could surge northwestward along the front ranges of the mountains between Saturday and Tuesday. This would mean a rise in humidity, along with a better chance of some thundery downpours of rain... and also a significant drop in temperatures. It's hard to count on these changes until they actually start happening, so stay tuned!
