Saturday's stats:
Low temp: 64.2F (17.9C)
High temp: 72.9F (22.7C)
Rainfall: 0.20" (5mm) -- updated at 7:40pm
It's very foggy at the moment, but I have a feeling by the time I finish this blog and get it posted, something else will be happening. It's been that kind of day again, with several fluctuations between clouds, sun, fog, showers and thunder. Up til now, the rain has been confined to the period between about 12:30 and 3:30pm, when we had a few periods of mainly light showers. My rainfall measurement in the upper part of town was the lowest since exactly a week ago... but even as I type, there is another shower appearing overhead.
The theme recently has been variability and changeability, sometimes within the space of less than a half hour. Sunshine until mid-morning was acceptable for laundry drying, if you happened to get a chance to take advantage of it... the humidity dropped to around 70% at 10am, before the rapid development of more clouds and fog. It looks like more of this 'back-and-forth' business is on tap for tomorrow (Sun), and probably into Monday as well, thanks to some drier air in mainly the mid- and upper levels of the atmosphere.
Of course a day completely devoid of rain during the monsoon season is a rare thing, but rainfall amounts should continue to be generally on the lighter side until Tuesday. At that time, a fresh surge of tropical moisture will arrive, perhaps erasing our sunny breaks and increasing our chances of longer-lasting and widespread heavier rainfall for the middle and latter parts of next week.
