Tuesday's stats:
Low temp: 66.4F (19.1C)
High temp: 82.7F (28.2C)
Rainfall: none
It's clear and warm out there this evening -- a beautiful end to an idyllic June day. Other than the fact that our temperatures were a notch warmer, it has been pretty much a repeat of yesterday, with tons of sunshine and only a minor amount of afternoon cumulus cloud development over the mountains. My high temp in the upper part of town was the second-warmest of this season and year.
Since the late winter, it has been rare to see weather charts that are so uneventful for us here in northern India. It seems we've never been more than a few days away from some kind of rain-producing system, keeping us from being able to just sit back, relax, and enjoy some calm conditions. Well -- that kind of benign pattern seems to be finally in place, as a quiet and dry west-northwesterly flow becomes established across the western Himalayan region. At the same time, there has been some considerable drying of the atmosphere, delivering some classic summertime conditions that are actually a few weeks late.
If you follow this blog regularly, you know that we always have to be aware of the potential for a PM thundershower popping up over the mountains -- even during fair weather patterns. But other than that back-burner issue, it looks like we'll continue to see lots of sunshine, along with temperatures that should be climbing higher and higher as we head toward the weekend. Even the extended range data is showing generally quiet weather for us -- all the way through next week.
