friday evening>

thundershowers have been rumbling around since about 1:20 this afternoon... but the rain has been very occasional, and on the light side. we've also had a few periods of thick fog today, as the humidity has been flirting with 100%. the high temp this afternoon in upper mcleod ganj was 24c/76f.

get ready for more rain as we head into the weekend... in fact, heavy rain is looking more and more likely for sunday and monday. a healthy surge of tropical moisture, in conjunction with a fairly strong disturbance in the upper atmosphere will bring periods of rain and even some thunderstorms to northern india. rainfall amounts of 3-4" (7-10cm) are a good bet. humidity will stay very high, which will keep fog (dense at times) in the forecast as well. our next breather from extreme wetness could occur by mid-late tuesday and wednesday of next week...
