Sunday's stats:
Early morning low temp: 43.5F (6.4C)
Afternoon high temp: 52.0F (11.1C)
Rainfall: none
There are quite a few clouds around this evening just after sunset, following a day of mixed sunshine, haze and cloudiness. My high temperature at the top of McLeod Ganj was just a fraction of a degree cooler than yesterday... so we are STILL in the midst of the coldest weather of the last 2+ weeks.
The remnants of our recent storm system has been spinning around over central Kashmir during the past 12 hours, providing us with a chilly breeze and enough instability to lead to the development of occasional clouds here along the mountains. Further downhill, yet another temperature inversion is setting up, causing widespread fog across Punjab today.
No major changes are expected during the coming week, although there will be a disturbance passing through on New Year's Day (Tuesday) and another on Friday. Neither of these systems are expected to contain enough moisture to stir up anything more than perhaps some isolated snow showers high in the mountains, so our dry streak of the past couple of weeks should continue right into 2013.
Temperatures, though quite cold, are actually running slightly above normal for the tail-end of December, and look like they will dip only slightly by Friday.
