i first heard some light rain at around 3:40am... and have 0.10" (3mm) in the rain gauge up here at the top of mcleod ganj on tushita road at the time of this posting. the overnight low temp has been 40.5F (4.7C), and the humidity this morning stands at 62%.
those early morning showers are the first of many more to come in the next two or three days. in fact, it is looking more and more likely that we'll see moderate to heavy amounts of rain as this new storm system moves through northern india, with a period of snowfall not out of the question. right now i'm leaning toward the greatest snow potential remaining above us... but that could change quickly if some of the colder air aloft finds its way a bit further down the mountain. as we all know... the rain/snow line is next to impossible to predict with any great degree of accuracy! we get to watch and wait.
at any rate, late today through early tuesday morning should be the target timeframe for picking up the heaviest precipitation. yes... another extended period of cold and wet weather looks to be inevitable...
SUNDAY: mostly cloudy with a good chance of a few periods of rain.
high: 8C (46F)
SUNDAY NIGHT: cloudy skies with rain likely. rain could mix with or change to snow... mainly above mcleod.
overnight low: 3C (37F)
MONDAY: cloudy and cold with rain likely. snow potential will be watched!!
high: 6C (43F)
TUESDAY: remaining mostly cloudy with a good chance of more rain and/or snow in the area.
morning low: 2C (35F)
daytime high: 6C (42F)
WEDNESDAY: partly to mostly cloudy with a chance of a few rain and snow showers around.
morning low: 2C (35F)
dayime high: 7C (45F)
THURSDAY: partly cloudy skies. a brief shower possible.
morning low: 3C (38F)
daytime high: 8C (47F)
