random raindrops... (pm.2.nov.11)>

a beautiful sunset has just concluded... as skies have rapidly cleared out this evening.  there were a few sprinkles and very light showers around town this afternoon, in the midst of the hide-and-seek sunshine, but at least at my place in the upper part of town, there wasn't enough rainfall to measure.  humidity has been in the 60-65% range for much of the day, and i recorded a high temp of 64.6F (18.1C).

it was a bit ironic that we actually had less afternoon cloudiness today than there's been recently, but ended up with those few raindrops.  some random sprinkles or light showers will remain in the forecast through saturday, as a couple of weak upper-level disturbances pass by.  rainfall amounts should be well below 1/4" (6mm) in total, but some higher amounts are possible further up in the mountains, especially on friday into saturday.  be prepared for rapidly changing weather conditions up there... although i don't expect the kind of snowfall that occurred up on the passes just 10 days ago.

precipitation chances should disappear again, with a bit of a warm-up expected as we move into the early part of next week...
