we have light to moderate rain in the upper part of mcleod ganj before sunrise this morning. i'm measuring 0.50" (1.3cm) since about 5 o'clock last evening... with a total of 0.60" (1.5cm) since late saturday night. the low temp at my place has been 38.3F (3.5C)... keeping the precipitation in liquid form so far.
the snow line is obviously somewhere just above mcleod ganj, thanks to some relatively mild air in the middle layers of the atmosphere. as this upper-level storm passes by over the course of the next 24-36 hours, we'll have to watch the potential for some colder air to get pulled into the mix... which could very easily change the rain to snow here at our elevation. in any event, we're in line for more wet weather today and perhaps a good bit of tuesday as well.
it does look like we'll be gradually drying out during the middle of the week... with temperatures expected to rebound, at least temporarily. unfortunately, computer models are already forecasting yet another significant storm system to impact the area over the coming weekend...
MONDAY: cloudy and cold with periods of rain, possibly mixed with snow, especially above mcleod.
high: 6C (43F)
MONDAY NIGHT: mostly cloudy with a good chance of more rain and/or snow in the area.
low: 2C (36F)
TUESDAY: mostly cloudy skies with occasional rain and/or snow showers likely.
high: 7C (45F)
WEDNESDAY: partly to mostly cloudy with a few rain/snow showers still possible.
morning low: 3C (37F)
daytime high: 8C (46F)
THURSDAY: partly cloudy. slight chance of a brief shower.
morning low: 4C (39F)
daytime high: 9C (49F)
FRIDAY: partly cloudy and milder.
morning low: 5C (41F)
daytime high: 11C (52F)
