Wednesday's stats:
Low temp: 44.1F (6.7C)
High temp: 51.8F (11.0C)
Precipitation: none
There are one or two lingering patches of clouds over the mountains, otherwise it is mostly clear just after sunset this evening. Christmas Day in McLeod Ganj has featured a mix of sunshine and occasional clouds, along with temperatures which actually moved very little throughout the course of the day. The high temp occurred around 11am, before some cooler air arrived, knocking us back into the upper 40sF/8-9C for most of the afternoon. As expected, there was no trace of rain or snow today.
A persistent upper-level circulation is in place just to our west-northwest, and is expected to remain generally stationary during the next several days -- ejecting a few weak disturbances which will wiggle their way across northern India. As I've been mentioning in every post, the lack of any decent amount of moisture in this air mass will preclude rain/snow shower development, but we should continue to see some patchy cloudiness here and there into the weekend and early next week. Still -- there should be plenty of sunshine to go around as well.
Temperatures recently have been very close to the target range for the final week of December, and we shouldn't venture too much above or too much below average during the coming several days. Extended range weather charts are hinting at some kind of storm system potential by New Year's Day... but that's a long way off, and we'll have to watch carefully how it may or may not develop...
