sunday evening>

we had off and on light rain showers until about 1pm today... but the rest of the afternoon was dry, and the evening has been dry thus far as well. today's high temp at the weathergeek office was near 21c/70f, thanks to a few minutes of sunshine here and there during the afternoon. the satellite pic is currently showing quite a bit of cloudiness and fog across himachal pradesh, but very little in the way of showers or storms. that will most likely change overnight, however, with the next round of rain expected to increase and intensify as we move into the new week. for the first time this monsoon season, deep moisture has now saturated all levels of the atmosphere, and the dry air in the mid- and upper levels that was giving us a few "grace days" is pretty much gone. it will not rain continuously for the next 5 days, but expect periodic rainy (and possibly thundery) episodes, that could deposit an inch or more of rain in just a few hours. when it's not raining, the clouds and fog will dominate. from where we stand this moment, these conditions appear to be here to stay...
