comfortably mild... (am.18.nov.13)>

It's another perfectly clear morning, and quite mild for this time of year with a sunrise temperature of 53.5F (11.9C).  Humidity is very  low -- at 25%.

I recorded a high temp in excess of 60F yesterday for the first time since November 2nd, and it looks likely that it will warm up even more today, taking us to to our highest temperatures since the last few days of October.  A ridge of high pressure in place across most of northern India is responsible for this fantastic mid-November weather pattern.  Apart from a stray patch of high clouds or some feeble cumulus build-up over the mountains during the afternoon, our skies should remain sunny and bright blue.

We still have to watch an upper-level disturbance accompanied by a batch of colder air which is going to swing in from the northwest during the mid-week period.  Right now it looks like the bulk of the effects of this system will remain to our north... but we could see a temporary dip in temperatures during the Wednesday-Thursday period.  Then, a resurgence of unseasonably warm air is back in the forecast for the coming weekend -- ahead of a potential storm system by late Sunday or Monday of next week.
