This morning's low temperature of 64.8F (18.2C) is the warmest I've recorded since back on the 2nd of the month -- and we have mostly clear skies as the sun gets ready to peek over the mountains. There has been no rainfall overnight, and my current humidity reading is 35%.
An increasingly summer-like weather pattern is shaping up for us during this final week of May, but it may not be totally devoid of some bumps in the road. Our upper-level pattern has now shifted to the west-northwest, as a giant ridge of high pressure starts to build off to our southwest over the Arabian Peninsula. Although there's not a lot of available moisture in this air mass, minor disturbances/circulations drifting across the area in that west-northwesterly flow aloft could be enough to trigger some random shower/thunder action, mainly during the afternoon hours over the course of the next few days. Of course this is kind of 'business as usual' here along the front slopes of the Dhauladhars, since it is rare that we have zero chances of PM thundershower development during the warm season.
Otherwise, we've also got plenty of sunshine to look forward to in the coming days, with temperatures that should be gradually climbing. In fact, it's looking more and more likely that we'll be seeing the warmest weather of the season and the year by the latter part of this week.
