sunday morning>

overcast skies and 18C/64F early this morning... and i have .05" (1mm) of water in my rain gauge, indicating that there must have been a brief shower at some point overnight. satellite pics are showing lots of cloudiness over himachal pradesh this morning, but there is no significant rainfall going on....yet.

it won't be long until the showers and thundershowers fire up... with the potential for another round of locally heavy rainfall. the last couple of days we've only had a few hours of rain, but it has been on the heavy side. those occasional tropical downpours will be the main theme during the next two or three days... in between periods of clouds and fog, and even random peeks of sunshine. it still looks like we could get more consistent, persistent rains moving in later in the week... as we are well on our way to a 35-40" (90-100cm) rainfall total for the month of august.

SUNDAY: a few brief peeks of sunshine possible, otherwise mostly cloudy and foggy with a few showers and thundershowers likely.
high: 21C (70F)

SUNDAY NIGHT: some showers around, mainly in the evening... then partly to mostly cloudy with areas of fog overnight.
low: 18C (64F)

MONDAY: glimpses of sun between the clouds and fog. a period of two of showers and thundershowers likely.
high: 21C (70F)

TUESDAY: mostly cloudy and foggy with off and on rainshowers.
high: 21C (69F)

WEDNESDAY: cloudy, foggy and cool with periods of rain likely.
high: 20C (68F)

THURSDAY: a rainy day... with lots of clouds and fog.
high: 20C (68F)
