Friday's stats:
Low temp: 52.0F (11.1C)
High temp: 59.0F (15.0C)
Rainfall: none
It's totally clear this evening, at the end of a sunshine-filled day. There were only the faintest and feeblest attempts at cloud development along the mountain peaks this afternoon, along with a period of light haze from the mid-afternoon through the early evening hours -- otherwise the December sun was unhindered. Temperatures are on the cool side, but actually, more in line with mid-November norms.
Significant warming is just now starting to appear in the upper-levels of the atmosphere, and that's going to set the stage for our weather situation over the coming several days. It may take a little time for milder temps to appear here at our elevation, but it is looking like we'll see a gradual warming trend over the weekend into early next week. There could be a few waves of high clouds from time to time, otherwise there should still be a good amount of sunshine.
The next surge of cooler air is currently scheduled for the end of next week -- with extended range computer models continuing to hint at the potential for some kind of storm system in our general vicinity by the 11th of the month, which is a week from Sunday. It has been a long long long long stretch of dry and uneventful weather around here, so I would be more than happy if we could see our first round of winter precipitation. We'll keep an eye on it...
