Monday's stats:
Low temp: 63.1F (17.3C)
High temp: 69.8F (21.0C)
Rainfall since midnight: 3.62" (9.2cm)
It's mostly cloudy with some patchy fog at the moment, but we had some sunshine poking through earlier this evening during the hour before sunset. The rainfall total since midnight is very impressive, especially considering that most of it occurred between 3:30am and 5:00am. I've only recorded an additional 0.22" (5mm) since shortly after 8:00am.
My August rainfall total has now surpassed the total for the entire month of July, and is a couple of inches ahead of normal. There are 12 days left in the month, but daily rainfall rates should decrease significantly later this week.
Heard today that yesterday's rainfall up around Triund was the heaviest of the entire monsoon season -- and all of that run-off is what triggered the waterfall surge in Bhagsu. It was a very brief event, but apparently freaked out a lot of people, judging by all the over-hype that has been happening on facebook and other social media.
