Sunday's stats:
Low temp: 71.2F (21.8C)
High temp: 88.4F (31.3C)
Rainfall: none
There are some fizzling clouds along the mountains along with some haze hanging in the air, otherwise it is mostly clear this evening. For the first time in a week, we didn't have a new high temperature for the season and the year today. It was still right on that magical line between very warm and hot, but it was just a degree (F) less hot than yesterday. Today was the seventh day in a row without even a drop of rain.
The news I have to report this evening is very good if you're enjoying this hardcore summertime weather, but very bad if you're in the mood for a better chance of some refreshing rainfall. Although the upper-level winds will be shifting around a bit during the coming week to ten days, the overall weather pattern will remain pretty much the same -- keeping our temps very close to where they've been the past several days, and preventing the combination of moisture and instability necessary to generate any significant shower and thunderstorm action.
There are no strong indications yet of a move toward more of a pre-monsoon situation in the near future, so we get to relish (or despise) this hot and dry weather though the middle of the month...
