another one?... (am.13.jan.12)>

from all accounts, there has been significant improvement in conditions around the area during the past couple of days... some sunshine, melting snow, and open roadways.  it appears that last weekend's snowstorm was the biggest since january, 2005 in mcleod ganj, dharamkot and naddi... and the biggest in decades further down in the lower elevations of the kangra district.  THANK YOU to those of you who have been providing up-to-date information on our facebook page as the situation unfolded.  i am bummed out that i missed the snow, but not so upset that i missed the power cuts and infrastructural meltdowns that are a part of life when winter storms hit mcleod ganj!

well, believe it or not, there is yet another storm system heading our way... which may bring some significant rain and snow to the area on sunday and monday.  it is very difficult to determine where the rain/snow line will be, but based on what happened last weekend, it appears there's a good bet that snow will fall as low as 1500m (4800ft), if not lower.  please be prepared for inclement weather conditions to develop once again by the latter half of the coming weekend...
