worry-free... (am.25.jan.15)>

Some high clouds are visible off to the east-southeast, otherwise we have clear skies early this morning.  I'm recording an overnight low temp of 42.8F (6.0C), and there has been no precipitation since last report.

There's not much to talk about -- with a generally flat upper-level pattern preventing the development of any significant storm systems for about the next week or so.  There are a few weak disturbances embedded in the flow, however, which could stir up some cloudiness and even a few random rain/snow showers.  Tuesday, and then late Wednesday into Thursday would be the best days to get an isolated shower somewhere around the area -- but even then I think it would be mostly confined to the higher elevations.

A cold mid-winter air mass is anchored to our north and northwest across central Asia, and  some slightly cooler air could be seeping across and draining through the mountains into our area as the week goes on.  But still, it doesn't look like anything particularly out of the ordinary for the very end of January.
