monday evening>

it's been a very wet monday... fog, thunder and rain enveloped mcleod ganj by 9am, with a period of very heavy rain for a couple of hours in the mid-morning. light rain has been on and off throughout the day, but has stopped for now. total rainfall up to the minute is 1.80" (4.6cm), which gives us a total of 3.55" (9cm) since yesterday afternoon. temps have been in the mid-60sF (17-19C) all day.

we do have a break in the action at the moment, but more rain is expected to develop overnight and tuesday. in fact, this latest surge of moisture won't retreat until perhaps early wednesday, so additional bouts of heavy rain are a good possibility. if you're getting tired of wet laundry, you can look forward to thursday and friday when we may see enough sunshine and drier air to assist. temps will stay cool through tomorrow, but some warmer temps (and unfortunately, more steaminess) are on the way for the latter half of the week...
