Saturday's stats:
Low temp: 63.1F (17.3C)
High temp: 73.4F (23.0C)
Rainfall: trace
A gorgeous sunset is in progress at this very moment, but by the time this gets posted, it will be long gone. Skies have become partly cloudy this evening, after some very threatening-looking conditions an hour or two ago, which included gusty winds and a few brief, very light rain showers. We've had less sunshine today as a whole, in comparison to the last 4-5 days, and humidity has been much higher -- in the 55-75% range. Still, measurable rainfall has been avoided, at least at my location on Tushita Road just below the Mountaineering Center.
Monsoon moisture which was pushed well southeast of here on Sunday night and Monday is trying desperately to sneak back northwestward, and has partly succeeded. Actually, the scenario has unfolded almost exactly according to expectations, even if the computer models have been a bit out to lunch and in denial about this resurgence of tropical moisture. We'll likely remain very close to the dividing line between dry air from central Asia and tropical moisture over much of the Indian subcontinent to our south -- at least for the next 36 to 48 hours or so. That means we should be alternating between sun, clouds, patchy fog, and possibly some scattered showers/thundershowers until the air mass begins to dry out again on Monday.
A return to generally sunny skies, low humidity and warm temperatures is on the way as we move toward the middle of next week. Other than the risk of some clouds/fog for a couple of hours in the evenings, it should be a pretty idyllic stretch of weather for the last week of September.
