Saturday's stats:
Low temp: 55.4F (13.0C)
High temp: 67.1F (19.5C)
Rainfall: trace
Today started off beautifully, and it's ending beautifully. But in between, we had to deal with a lot of cloudiness, and even a few sprinkles and spotty very light showers between roughly 1:30 and 4:00pm. Those raindrops were not enough to register a measurement, but along with the thick clouds, put a damper on the afternoon. My high temperature was actually very close to expectations -- and the third-warmest of the year -- occurring just a few minutes before noon. It warmed up nicely again during the late afternoon after the clouds made their exit.
The theme of the past few days has been extreme variability in sky conditions, as we've had some very dramatic shifts between sunshine and clouds. Significant warming in the mid- and upper-levels of the atmosphere combined with a hefty batch of moisture lying just to our south and west has kept wave after wave of clouds developing and moving across northern India, with even some scattered shower activity occurring mainly to our northeast over the higher mountains.
A new upper-level disturbance is now centered over northeastern Iran, and will be our main weather feature during the first few days of the new week. It's looking like we're going to be dealing with quite a turbulent atmosphere between tomorrow evening and perhaps early Tuesday morning as this system sweeps through. The risk of showers and thunderstorms will be on the increase by tomorrow afternoon, with the best chance of rain between late tomorrow night and Monday night. There could also be some periods of strong and gusty winds and wildly fluctuating temperatures as well, as differing air masses battle for control.
The risk of a couple of thundershowers will linger through Tuesday, but then things should finally settle down for the latter half of next week.
