Weather It Is (Take a A Left and Then A Right)

Good Morning:

Spring has sprung and it's a dandy.  However, it's not enough to get a good hit (or even a big hit) once in a while; rather it's consistency that matters.  Someone should tell that to our weather.

After today, we're going to head upwards (temperature wise), and each day through Yom HaZikkoron will be warmer than the day before.  However, by the evening (yes, it may just happen again!), the winds should begin to shift from warm southerlies to cooler (and stronger) westerlies.  Not only that, the temperatures should continue their downward trend all the way through Yom HaAzmahut into the following day.  Indeed, if the cards fall just right it may (just may) turn damp and rainy even sometime on Independence day.

We owe all this to a strengthening high pressure high pressure area building into eastern Europe, which will funnel relatively cold air southward, helping to spin up a broad area of more winter-like low-pressure over the eastern Mediterranean.

Do we expect summer to follow soon thereafter? Not yet.
