There is a good amount of mainly high cloudiness across the area just before sunrise, with a humidity reading of 64%. My early morning low temp has occurred just recently, at 39.0F (3.9C), and there has been no precipitation overnight.
The latest upper-level disturbance is now pushing into northern India from the west, stirring up this high cloudiness, and bringing with it a batch of even colder air than we've already been dealing with during the past several days. All of the various computer models are projecting some light precipitation for us by late this afternoon -- with the potential continuing into Tuesday. Amounts should be light, if we get anything at all, but there are hints that it will be cold enough for some sleet and/or snow showers at some point. This is a genuine mid-winter air mass, providing us with temperatures well below average for this stage of February.
A weak ridge of high pressure will tentatively and temporarily build in on Wednesday into Thursday, boosting temps a little bit closer to normal while providing us with the best chance of some decent sunshine all week. But then, we'll have to refocus our attention to the west, as a potent-looking winter storm system heads in our direction for the first half of the weekend. At this early stage, it seems that we will be in a prime location to pick up some significant rain and/or snow, with temperatures plummeting once again. Stay tuned as we keep track of those developments.
