we're enjoying some rays of the setting sun through foggy, misty skies this evening. it was another day of drizzle and light rain showers, and even a little thunder, which yielded only about a tenth of an inch of rain across mcleod ganj. fellow weathergeeks tell me that there was heavier rain this afternoon in kangra. the high temp at the top of mcleod ganj barely made it up to 21C/70F...
well, we are obviously into a weak phase of the monsoon, with no significant rainfall here since early friday morning. there are still no strong, obvious features in the overall weather pattern across northern india... just tons of moisture waiting around for a trigger! the "triggers" will come in the form of weak disturbances and cold pockets aloft, in combination with warming at the surface due to a few periods of sunshine. our computer models ARE increasing our rain chances (and amounts) during the next several days, but like today (kangra vs. mcleod ganj), rainfall will be rather "hit and miss" throughout this coming week. just be prepared for heavy tropical downpours to materialize at any time...
