Thursday's stats:
Low temp: 70.2F (21.2C)
High temp: 87.7F (30.9C)
Rainfall: none
Skies are totally clear just before sunset this evening, at the end of the warmest day of 2014. My high temp actually nudged its way just a bit above normal for the first week of June -- the first time in several weeks since we've gone above climatological averages. There was a modest build-up of cumulus clouds over the mountains again between the very late morning and mid-afternoon, but our sunshine was never restricted.
The upper-level pattern from Saudi Arabia into India is a fairly typical one for this time of year, keeping things generally dry and stable across a very wide area. The exception to that is some isolated/random afternoon thundershower activity that has occurred in some of the higher mountain locations -- but we've been spared any of that so far this week. Actually, a shower or thundershower would feel pretty nice right about now.
Other than that risk of an isolated PM thundershower one of these days, we should continue to see lots of sunshine, along with fairly low humidity readings, and temperatures which will remain very close to seasonal averages -- and perhaps a bit above at times.
