Saturday's stats:
Low temp: 39.6ºF (4.2ºC)
High temp: 48.9ºF (9.4ºC)
Precipitation: trace
Our Saturday didn't turn out as nice as expected, though if you are an early riser, you got to enjoy the 2-3 hours of bright sunshine before the rapid increase in cloudiness which got underway shortly after 10am. There were another couple of periods of sun breaking through the clouds during the mid-day, and again during the late afternoon, but cloudiness definitely ended up dominating. Temperatures were a few degrees milder than we experienced the last two days, but still below normal for this time of year.
The weather news moving forward is not good -- if you're in the mood for a trend toward a more spring-like scenario. Our pattern is looking extremely unstable, unsettled and changeable throughout the coming week, with models flipping and flopping all over the place, with regard to both temperatures and precipitation potential. Several pulses of upper-level energy combined with batches of moisture being forced up against the north Indian Himalayas will keep a mix of rain and snow in the forecast all week long, as temperatures average out cooler than normal for the latter half of February.
