get used to this... (am.08.jun.14)>

It's another sunny morning -- there's a bit of haze around but no clouds.  My low temp in the upper part of town has been 71.2F (21.8C), and there has been no precipitation overnight.  The humidity reading is currently 32%.

Apart from the risk of an isolated afternoon shower or thundershower popping up somewhere along the mountains, we should continue to see lots of sunshine during the coming several days.  There are some minor shifts and wiggles occurring in the upper-level pattern -- but nothing that is going to do much to destabilize this very warm summertime air mass in place across the western Himalayan region.

It looks like temperatures may not go much higher than they have the last day or two, but that's OK, since they're already high enough!  88-90F (31-32C) is just a shade above normal for early June... which is the warmest time of the year on average anyway.  At this point, the only thing that's going to allow us to cool down very much would be an increase in moisture leading to some cloud development and/or significant shower activity -- and that doesn't appear likely during the coming week or more.
