Tuesday's stats:
Low temp: 55.5F (13.1C)
High temp: 62.2F (16.8C)
Rainfall: none
Our sky is about 75% overcast this evening as dusk turns to darkness, but those clouds are exclusively of the high and thin variety. Actually, we had occasional extensive patches of those high clouds all day, with periods of nice sunshine mixed in as well. This is the third day of a very slow decline in temperatures, though we remain well above where we should be for the end of November. Humidity was again quite variable -- ranging from 18% early this morning to around 43% during the mid-afternoon.
The latest disturbance in the jet stream flow is just now moving into northwestern Afghanistan, and is expected to move rapidly east-northeastward during the next 36 hours or so. Once again, occasional waves of high clouds are all we can expect to see from this system, with the risk of some scattered light to moderate showers of rain and snow remaining in the higher mountain areas to our north. There will be a minor push of cooler air as this system sweeps by, but we've got a long way to go if we want to drop below normal, temp-wise -- so the bit of cooling we get will really be insignificant for the season.
Quiet and dry weather will follow for the weekend, and as it looks, all the way through next week as well. This dry streak we're experiencing is turning into one of epic proportions, as we will soon cross the mark of 50 rainless days...
