FORECAST:
Finally some possible moisture today with an upper trough in a South Westerly flow aloft. Chance of showers today in a mix of sun and cloud. Not enough moisture to make much of a difference. Depending on models we could see 0-4 mm but with the track record lately 0-trace is more likely. From the satellite images there will be rain to the North. The FL is hovering around 3000 m this am. Ridging for the week with mostly sunny skies. Some cloud in the mix as well. May see an increase in cloud cover next Saturday but that is a ways off. Continuing drought in the immediate future. Guesstimates: 0-4 mm by Tuesday am, 0 mm from Tuesday to Saturday. 0-trace by Sunday am. Looking dry again next week.
