Monday's stats:
Low temp: 39.6ºF (4.2ºC)
High temp: 55.0ºF (12.8ºC)
Precipitation: 0.55" (1.4cm)
(all stats updated through midnight)
Moderate rain is in progress at this moment, here at the end of a day which featured some very gusty winds at times, generally cloudy skies, and several short periods of mainly light rain showers. Temperatures this morning were much milder than expected, but then began to drop once the rain showers started to materialize. The low temp you see there in the stats above is actually what the thermometer is showing right now.
The center of our upper-level low pressure system is currently located over northcentral Afghanistan, and will move very little as it sits and spins and spins and spins and spins for the next few days. This is going to keep us in line for wave after wave of precipitation to develop and move in from the south-southwest -- as much colder air continues to filter in from the north and northwest. This clash of air masses basically right on top of Himalayan north India will produce widespread moderate to heavy rain and snow into at least early Wednesday morning.
The exact placement of the lower extent of the accumulating snow is always very hard to determine until it actually materializes... so it is going to be interesting to watch and wait and see how things evolve over the course of the next 36 hours or so. And then, we can look forward to some gradual improvement by the latter part of the week, with precipitation totally out of the forecast by Saturday or Sunday...
