It's partly cloudy and comfortably mild early on this Monday morning, but yesterday's changeable and active weather continued into the very early morning hours, with some thunder, gusty winds and even 0.08" (2mm) of rain. I was surprised to see that amount in the rain gauge this morning -- although still not much to get excited about, it was at least enough to measure, unlike the couple of brief showers we had on Sunday. Temperatures fluctuated wildly overnight, with the low dipping to 57.0F (13.9C) during the rain shower, but then rising again to 66.8F (19.3C) just before sunrise. Humidity has also been all over the place -- between 30% and 76%.
The upper-level disturbance responsible for the unsettled conditions of the past 24 hours has weakened early this morning as it moves off to the east. There may yet be enough instability to get a light thundershower going at some point today, but the trend will be toward more stable conditions by Tuesday. A ridge of high pressure is already trying to build across northwest India in the wake of this recent disturbance, which will provide generally quiet weather for the majority of this week, while allowing plenty of warm air to flow into our area. Temperatures, especially between Tuesday and Friday, will be at their warmest of the season thus far.
A new upper-level disturbance is scheduled to arrive sometime on Friday, bringing another increase in the chance of some scattered thundershowers, which could last through at least the first part of the weekend. There's plenty of time to keep an eye on how that evolves...
