it has been another day of gloom, but with very little rainfall accumulation to show for it. my rain gauge is showing less than a tenth of an inch (3mm) for the day, but i haven't yet heard from my observers near the main temple, AND, it is currently raining, so we'll likely end up with a bigger total for the day. the high temp today was 21.5C/71F.
**UPDATE @ 740pm** rainfall for today:
-near main temple... 0.55" (1.4cm)
-upper mcleod ganj... 0.20" (0.5cm)
-AUGUST total for upper mcleod ganj... 9.15" (23.2cm)
no satellite pics have been available since about 8am this morning... so there is no way to see what is happening. however, our computer models are still showing a rather dramatic increase in significant rainfall potential day by day, right into the weekend. that makes sense, simply because we are now on day FOUR without more than a few relatively brief showers, and the monsoon moisture probably won't wait much longer to be wrung out of our saturated atmosphere. the heavy showers developing at the time of this writing may be a sign of things to come...
