We've cleared out again early this morning, as the large area of high clouds that had been with us since yesterday afternoon pushes off to the east-southeast. My current temperature is also the overnight low -- 44.2F (6.8C), and there has been no precipitation since last report. Humidity is 41% just before sunrise.
The big ridge of high pressure that had provided us with about a day and a half of totally sunny weather has now broken down, and is being replaced by an upper-level flow that is embedded with weak ripples and disturbances. There will be very little to get excited about, since moisture is very limited, and will remain so until late Friday. However, be aware of the likelihood of some extended periods of cloudiness on occasion between now and Friday, along with a slight chance of one or two isolated/random light rain showers at some point. Although temperatures are milder than they were over this past weekend, our air mass will be generally cooler than normal for this time of year, with occasional clouds keeping us from getting the full benefit of the late winter sun.
A stronger storm system is still being forecast by the computer models to come together over northern India by Friday night, bringing us a good chance of some significant rainfall all the way into Saturday night and perhaps Sunday as well. Temperatures will drop, but there shouldn't be enough cold air associated with this system to bring the snow line down as far as McLeod Ganj. Of course we'll be watching all of the assembling variables as the end of the week approaches...
