it's been a mixed bag monday. the high temp was only 24c/75f early this afternoon... with .25" (6mm) of rainfall from showers very early in the morning, and again during the mid-afternoon hours. the satellite pic is quite a mess this evening, showing all kinds of clouds and scattered thundershowers extending from central asia through northern pakistan into kashmir, himachal pradesh and punjab. there is a rather unorganized series of upper-level disturbances responsible for this unsettled weather... and that will keep scattered showers and storms in the forecast for the next few days. BUT... warmer air is trying to build across the plains of northern india, so we do expect a gradual warm-up, along with increasing periods of sunshine between (mainly) afternoon thundershowers.
*MONSOON WATCH** the northern limit of the monsoon has now crept into extreme southern gujarat, central madhya pradesh and eastern bihar. heavy monsoon rains are now in full swing across kerela, goa, mumbia and pune...
