Tuesday's stats:
Low temp: 50.2F (10.1C)
High temp: 61.5F (16.4C)
Rainfall since 7:00am: trace
Total rainfall since Sat evening: 2.21" (5.6cm)
There's a lot of cloudiness across the area as sunset approaches this evening, but our recent rains have cleansed the air, allowing great visibility south and westward into the valleys below. Although the clouds were definitely the majority feature today, we did manage to come up with a few short periods of sunshine as well, and that made it feel much nicer than yesterday. Still... our temperatures are running a mind-boggling 20F (11C) below normal for this time of year! Measurable rainfall ended around dawn, and never got started again, though there were a few sprinkles here and there.
The unseasonably muscular upper-level circulation responsible for this recent bout of wet and cool weather remains over extreme northern Pakistan this evening, and has moved very little in the past 24 hours. However, it has pretty much exhausted its supply of moisture, as colder air working its way down to the surface has brought a bit of stabilization. There has been some new thundershower development late this afternoon and early this evening to our west and northwest... so that means we're still not totally out of the woods with regard to the risk of more rain before this system is gone for good.
Gradual warming from the surface into the mid- and upper-levels of the atmosphere will get started tomorrow, and will last into the weekend. We could see a couple of random showers or thundershowers somewhere around the area tomorrow, but then we could end up with a more stable situation on Thursday and Friday, as temperatures quickly rebound into the pleasantly warm range. Yet another (weaker) disturbance will threaten over the weekend, but right now it looks like any shower/thunder action will be relatively minor.
