Thursday's stats:
Low temp: 42.1ºF (5.6ºC) -- at 8:50pm
High temp: 55.8ºF (13.2ºC) -- at 2:30am
Precipitation: 0.85" (2.2cm)
**all stats updated thru midnight**
It's raining quite heavily at this moment, with occasional gusty winds and even some thunder and lightning in the area. There was a bit of sunshine off and on this morning, but scattered rain showers started to show up during the noon hour, with some heavier showers gradually developing as the afternoon and evening wore on. Temperatures have been on a downward trend all through the day, as we were expecting.
The center of our latest upper-level storm system is located over northern Pakistan this evening, and will be moving just to our north during the coming 18-24 hours. The main batch of moisture associated with this system is moving through right now, with the best chance of significant precipitation expected overnight into early Friday. Models are keeping occasional showers in the area all the way into tomorrow (Fri) evening, but I think most of the precip will come to an end before that. Let's see. Temperatures have obviously been cooling down significantly, but we're still expecting the snow line to remain well above us, maybe as far downhill as the upper reaches of Dharamkot, Bhagsu and Naddi. We'll escape the snow in McLeod this time around.
The weekend is looking quiet, but a very unsettled, unstable and potentially stormy weather pattern is being advertised for much of next week -- especially the mid- and latter parts of the week. Data for that time period has been very inconsistent with some wild fluctuations, but it will be interesting to watch how it comes together.
