we are totally socked in with fog early this morning... with a temp of 18C/64F at the weathergeek office. the past 12 hours have been rather rainy, breaking our streak of 3.5 days with nothing more than a few tenths of an inch (around 1cm). thundershowers between 820pm and midnight brought exactly 2" (5.1cm) of rain near the main temple. my observation here in upper mcled ganj was faulty, due to a chair that i found blocking my rain gauge, well into the storm... so i think i missed more than half of it! not sure if it was monkey or human error... :-)
a newly developing batch of rain/storms are showing up on the satellite pics this morning over southern himachal pradesh and uttar anchal, and appear to be heading in our direction. our various computer model guidance continues to point to steadily increasing chances of a few rounds of moderate to heavy rainfall this week. after our little respite the past few days, we could be getting back into the mode where we could average an inch per day. barring any sunshine, temps will be on the cool side...
