Tuesday's stats:
Early morning low temp: 53.1F (11.7C)
Afternoon high temp: 63.0F (17.2C)
Rainfall: none
It is absolutely clear just after sunset this evening after an absolutely sunny day. Today's high temp of 63F was the warmest since the 6th of November -- exactly four weeks ago!
The warming trend we've been experiencing over the course of the past four days has been more dramatic than expected, and has taken us several degrees above normal for the first week of December. A healthy high pressure ridge remains sprawled across northern India, providing a very stable air mass for our enjoyment, and suppressing virtually all potential cloud development -- a rather rare event for us here along the front slopes of the Dhauladhars. There will be a weak upper-level disturbance drifting through tomorrow (Wed) into tomorrow night, but it should do nothing more than give us a chance of seeing a few more clouds moving in or developing. A stronger disturbance is still scheduled for the weekend, from Friday night into Saturday, and will give us at least a slight chance of a couple of showers in the midst of partly to mostly cloudy skies.
The unusually balmy early winter temps should hang around for a few more days... it looks like the next chance of some significant cooling will wait until the weekend. Early next week should see a return to normal temperatures for the season...
