We have some streaks of high, thin cirrus clouds across the area again this morning at sunrise. It's a very mild morning -- I'm recording a low temp of 46.6F (8.1C) -- and humidity is low at 32%. There has been no precipitation since last report.
There's still very little happening on the weather scene, which should keep our quiet, dry and mild conditions going for most if not all of this coming week. A very weak disturbance in the upper-levels is lingering over northern India right now, stirring up that bit of high cloudiness, but it still doesn't look like there will be any shower activity in association with it -- except in the highest elevations well to our north. By tomorrow that disturbance will be out of here, leaving us with a flat west-to-east flow aloft, with a bit of high pressure ridging as well. That means sunshine and some off-and-on clouds will be the rule all the way into next weekend.
To go along with the calm atmosphere, temperatures will be rising well above normal for the waning days of January. In fact, I may need to nudge my forecast temps upward for this week -- and I'm starting to wonder if we might approach 60F (15.6C) by Tuesday or Wednesday. All of this will be a nice break in the winter program -- but extended range data is looking a bit dicey by about the 3rd of February, with a return to wet and colder weather.
