saturday evening>

it's cloudy... it's foggy... and there are a few showers scattered around the area this evening. rainfall has been very light, and barely measurable since around 2pm. we did get a couple of hours of gorgeous sunshine early this morning... and that helped boost the high temp to 23C/74F in upper mcleod ganj.

well... our rainfall amounts have certainly dropped off in a major way the last few days, but we are still getting A LOT of thick fog during the afternoons and evenings... which indicates that the monsoon moisture has not abandoned us just yet. what is lacking for heavy rainfall are significant upper-level disturbances and instability (relatively colder air aloft). these somewhat "stable" conditions will continue for another 48 hours or so, but then i'm expecting rain chances to increase once again. by tuesday and wednesday, we should be back in line for those heavy downpours that we've missed out on for most of the past week!
