Wednesday's stats:
Low temp: 48.6F (9.2C)
High temp: 60.6F (15.9C)
Rainfall: trace
There are a few random clouds clinging to the mountains at sunset this evening, otherwise we have mostly clear skies. Sunshine this morning did yield to rapid cloud development over the Dhauladhars starting around 11:00am, then a period of thick clouds, a couple of rumbles of thunder, and even a few sprinkles of rain between about 1:45 and 2:30pm. But our skies cleared out again shortly after 3:00pm, leaving us with mostly sunny skies for the remainder of the day.
This rather featureless, marginally unstable atmosphere is going to remain with us for the next few days. There are no significant storm systems in the picture at the moment, but also no really reliable fair weather pattern. We should continue to see a mix of sunshine and occasional clouds, along with at least a slight chance of some thundershower development over the mountains during the afternoon hours. Temperatures will be relatively pleasant, but still several degrees cooler than normal for this time of year.
Computer models haven't settled on a solution regarding a stronger upper-level disturbance moving in during the first part of next week. Right now it appears we're in for a fairly long period of unsettled weather starting late Saturday or Sunday -- with increasing chances of some significant rain and thunderstorm action by Monday. Again, models are inconsistent right now, but it definitely looks like we've got yet another active period of weather on the way. The very wet pattern we've been stuck in since early February really shows no sign of changing dramatically before the end of the month.
