Sunday's stats:
Low temp: 61.7F (16.5C)
High temp: 71.8F (22.1C)
Rainfall: trace
There are clusters of clouds and fog around the area this evening, but not enough to totally obscure a very lovely sunset just a couple of minutes ago. Overall, today has been probably the nicest day of the last week or more, with lots of morning sunshine yielding to a less gloomy build-up of clouds during the mid-day and afternoon hours, and only a couple of random sprinkles of rain for a few minutes this evening. Humidity has been primarily in the 65-80% range, with very comfortable temperatures.
I wish I could say that today is a preview of things to come, but it's really not. Our atmosphere remains packed with much more moisture than is normal for this time of year, and there is only the slightest reduction in that moisture content expected as this week progresses. At the same time, there will be a couple of weak upper-level circulations drifting through. That means we are likely to see at least another couple of eruptions of showers and thundershowers this week -- which could occur virtually anytime of the day or night. I'm pretty confident that we'll also continue to see a few hours of sunshine each day, but periods of clouds and patchy fog will never be too far away.
HHDL teachings start tomorrow morning at Tsuglagkhang -- so it would be nice if most of the inclement weather would avoid the morning and early afternoon hours. Be prepared, just in case.
I am sorry to report that there is still no major feature appearing on the weather charts that would shove this lingering moisture out of here for good. It's not technically the monsoon anymore, but it's certainly not the classically dry, crisp days of Himalayan autumn yet, either.
