i've got some big rainfall numbers to report this morning as of 6am:
-12 hour total (overnight): 1.89" (4.8cm)
-24 hour total (since thu morning): 4.22" (10.7cm)
-48 hour total (since wed morning): 5.41" (13.7cm)
there is still some light rain in the area, and we've had a rather cool overnight low temp of 61.2F (16.2C), along with a breeze that has picked up in the last couple of hours.
our inaugural western upper-level disturbance of the season is making its move across the western himalayas at the moment, with style. as it plows into this deep field of tropical moisture, widespread rain and even a few thunderstorms have been developing and tracking slowly to the east. the center of this disturbance won't pass by until late tonight, so our chances of heavy rainfall will continue for another 12-18 hours or so. as it passes, it looks like it will be strong enough to sweep our monsoon airmass south and east of us... leaving us with much drier air, more sunshine, and much less rainfall for the rest of the weekend into next week.
we'll have to watch carefully next week to see if monsoon conditions creep back in here, or if we can start counting the days to an "official" monsoon withdrawal declaration for northwest india!
