It is cloudy just before sunrise this morning, and there are a few light sprinkles in the area at the moment. We've had some off and on periods of rain overnight, which have added up to 0.26" (7mm) in my rain gauge here in the upper part of town -- and I'm recording a low temp of 47.3F (8.5C). It is currently 49.1F (9.5C), and the humidity is 60%.
There's a lot of weather to watch during the next 24 hours or so, as a wave of upper-level energy intersects with a very juicy batch of moisture here along the mountains of northern India. That upper-level low pressure and circulation center over Turkmenistan is the dynamic driver of all this, and is still expected to move very little until the latter part of this week. Our highest risk of significant rainfall will continue until early tomorrow (Tues) morning -- with more than an inch (2.5cm) of additional rain quite likely by then. There will probably be some thunder and gusty winds at times as well.
We can look forward to some kind of break in the action, along with some (hopefully) nice periods of sunshine between late Tuesday and mid-day Thursday, but then the next wave of energy and accompanying moisture will move in starting on Thursday night. That will increase rain chances again through Friday into perhaps Saturday morning. Any sunshine we can get this week will allow temperatures to rise well above 60F (15.5C), but it will obviously be cooler than that during periods of cloudiness and rain.
