monday evening FLOODING...

extremely heavy rainfall in mcleod ganj began around 540pm, and is now slowly ending at 640pm. the main square in mcleod ganj has been flooded... specifically the lower section of asian plaza and the western union offices. i don't have specific rainfall information yet, but i'm sure it has been in excess of 2" (5cm) in this past hour.... possibly much more than that. run-off from TIPA and TUSHITA ROADS into the main square will gradually subside during the next half hour or so. this is the most significant amount of water i've witnessed yet this year...!

rainfall totals will be updated as available...

**RAINFALL UPDATE @ 930pm** totals for the day:
-upper mcleod ganj... 3.70" (9.4cm)
-naddi village... 2.48" (6.3cm)
-near main temple... 2.65" (6.7cm)
