unstable conditions... (pm.03.mar.19)>

Sunday's stats:

Low temp: 38.5ºF (3.6ºC)
High temp: 49.2ºF (9.6ºC)
Precipitation: 0.31" (8mm)
Storm total precip: 1.06" (2.7cm) -- since Saturday morning

Most of today's measurable rainfall occurred before dawn, though we did get a few passing/fleeting light showers (with some thunder) off and on during the day.  There was also a lot of variability between clouds and sunshine.

The vast majority of moisture associated with this current upper-level storm system has swept well east of us, but our atmosphere is going to remain quite unstable during the next couple of days, and that will keep the mention of some mainly light rain shower development in the forecast.  The cloud/sun battles that we've seen so much of recently will continue as well, thanks to that instability.

This chilly air mass is not going to be in a big hurry to depart, though there are indications that we'll see some noticeable moderation in temperatures toward the end of this week.
