Wednesday's stats:
Low temp: 41.9ºF (5.5ºC) -- at 7:05pm
High temp: 53.8ºF (12.1ºC) -- at 4:50am
Precipitation: 0.13" (3mm) -- updated thru midnight
It was quite mild early this morning, in advance of our latest incoming storm system. Mostly cloudy skies throughout the day led to a few sprinkles of rain around noon, and then some actual showers by mid-afternoon, which increased slightly in intensity during the evening hours. We've also had some very gusty winds at times. The day's low temperature occurred during a brief heavier rain shower shortly after 7pm.
The center of an upper-level low pressure circulation is located over extreme northern Afghanistan right now, channeling a moderate amount of moisture up against the western Himalayan ranges. We're still stuck in a pattern featuring wave after wave of these upper-level disturbances, with only a couple of days of relatively pleasant weather in between. This latest disturbance will keep scattered rain showers in the forecast overnight and tomorrow (Thu), though it's possible we could see more sunshine tomorrow than we saw today. Things look gradually better on Friday, and then relatively quiet and significantly milder on Saturday -- but the risk of showers will increase again on Sunday... and again by late Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.
Still waiting for that elusive breakthrough that will usher in a true change of seasons.
