mostly cloudy along with some thick patches of fog early this morning... with a temp of 18c/65f. no rain at the moment but satellite pics are showing quite a bit of action to our west and south. a large cluster of rain and thunderstorms is straddling the kashmir/pak border, with other smaller, scattered thundershowers across punjab, southward to the delhi area.
the forecast is a bit on auto-pilot this morning... as there are no dramatic changes in the overall pattern, either at the surface or in the upper atmosphere. that means occasional periods of rain and thunderstorms will remain likely through thursday, with some additional heavy rainfall amounts. computer model solutions are coming up with another 3-4" (7-10cm) during that timeframe. as we saw yesterday afternoon, with this hyper-saturated airmass, a couple of inches can get dumped on us in a very short time. there will be brief peeks of sunshine at times, in between all the clouds, fog and rain. looking ahead... there are indications of a drying trend for the end of the week, meaning, a little more sun, a little less humidity, and smaller rain chances...
