Day 3 of Mt. Shasta, CA (KMHS)

More persistent low-level clouds than expected prevented it from dropping below 32F last night. Cloudy all day today, with scattered showers and 0.02” so far. Some more showers are expected this evening before drying out and partially clearing out later tonight, allowing for some radiational cooling. Tomorrow looks somewhat sunnier than today, allowing for more daytime heating but mitigated by a slightly colder air mass, which will induce instability. The instability combined with a subtle disturbance arriving will lead to some scattered showers in the afternoon and evening. Winds will be calm initially but switch to northwesterly tomorrow evening, which tends to be a little stronger than other wind directions at Mt. Shasta. Showers will dissipate tomorrow night with the loss of daytime heating induced instability, with clearing and drier low-level air leading to decent radiational cooling conditions, perhaps tempered a bit by the wind.
