we have mostly cloudy skies with some light fog at sunrise this morning. the low temp has been 70.2F (21.2C), with no rainfall overnight. the humidity currently stands at a very muggy 89%.
satellite pics show that the main rain and thunder activity overnight has occurred just to our south, across much of punjab, and southwestern himachal... it looks like chandigarh is getting in on the action at the moment. winds aloft are very light, from the north, so all of this is drifting away from us. however, tropical moisture is all over the place, so more areas of rain and possible thunder could develop at any time. with this kind of airmass, it's not difficult at all to get an inch (2.5cm) of rain in a short period of time, so be prepared for that potential. in case you missed it on the last post, the IMD has declared the official onset of the monsoon for our area... you can check the latest map here, or click on the MONSOON WATCH tab above.
it is looking very likely that we'll be seeing at least a couple of rounds of very heavy rains between now and early next week... our first real dose of what will become fairly commonplace during the coming 10-12 weeks. stay tuned...
