Tuesday's stats:
Low temp: 37.9ºF (3.3ºC)
High temp: 49.8ºF (9.9ºC)
Precipitation: none
We had sunshine with waves of thin high cloudiness today, until some thicker high clouds started to appear toward sunset. Although it was slightly milder, it's still been eight days in a row during which I have not recorded a high temperature above 50ºF (10ºC).
The next storm system of our busy mid-winter season is now getting itself organized well to our west over northeastern Iran this evening, and will bring increasing chances of precipitation across our area by tomorrow (Wed) afternoon. This one is not in the same calibur of intensity as the storm that lingered around here for much of last week, but the latest data indicates that there could be in excess of an inch (2.5cm) of rain here in the vicinity of McLeod, which translates into around a foot of snow in the higher elevations above. We'll have to keep an eye on temperatures and that rain/snow line, as always. The heaviest rain/snow should occur between Wednesday night and mid-day Friday.
We should have a breather over the weekend, but then things start to get dicey again by next Tuesday, the first day of Tibetan Losar. A major winter storm could affect us for the rest of Losar, with snow and very cold temps...
