Monday's stats:
Low temp: 35.6ºF (2.0ºC)
High temp: 48.1ºF (8.9ºC)
Precipitation: 1.60" (4.1cm) -- thru midnight
Snowfall: 0.2" (5mm)
A mix of rain and wet snow is in progress here in the upper part of McLeod Ganj late this evening. I had a quick accumulation of slush during the last hour or so, but temperatures remain enough above freezing to prevent much snow from piling up. About 80% of the above precipitation total has occurred since about 4:15pm. In spite of a few quick periods of sunshine today, temperatures have been more in line with mid-late January rather than mid-Feb.
The first of two storm systems this week is currently moving through. This one is the colder of the two, and that's why we're flirting with the snow line right now, and will continue to see a threat of snow overnight into early Tuesday morning. There could be some accumulations very close to town during the next 12 hours.
From mid-day tomorrow (Tue) into Wednesday afternoon we might be able to scrounge out some kind of break in precipitation... but then the next storm system of the week will begin to move in. This one will involve a milder/warmer air mass, but also the potential for heavier precipitation and even some thunderstorms and gusty winds. Heavy rainfall is likely sometime between Wednesday evening and late Thursday night.
