First rain of 2012

It was a joy to see the first thunder shower of the season and the year :) ...though it lasted only 30 minutes.

Hope to see more showers.

Second thunder shower today, lasted longer than the first one.

May your wish for rains on Bengaluru come true.

I think Blore follows Seasons so Blore people need to wait for some more days till rainy season comes, Discipline City Blore :-)

Yesterday the skies played havoc with thunder and lightning. Good rain too. Around 8-45PM, a thunder shook the window panes and I could feel the shock waves on my back.

Thursday 2:45 AM I could hear wind blowing really hard. I heard 2 or 3 flower pots on the terrace fall down. Then rain rain followed. By 5-30 AM weather was peaceful with Sun shining brightly.

It was a hot day. By 4-30PM heavy thunder and fast winds followed by little rains. Air is cool and fresh now.

A humid day. About 20 minutes back the skies opened up and fast wind shook trees as though they were twigs. Hail stones rained down. This is the best rain of the season until today.

Raining on and off since morning. Monsoon has reached Dharwad! May the season shower good rains and bring joy to farmers.

Cloudy, Sunny and Rainy day. The weather has cooled considerably.

Rained June 17th night till 18th morning. Then a week's gap. Now it's been raining on and off since Monday. Today is a real wet day.

I believe it rains when frogs croak, they are considered as Mallikarjuna. This year frogs have barely croaked. I heard them last week and yesterday- it rained little yesterday and this morning too.

siddeshwar said...

Yes, frogs are croaking almost continuously :) we can expect more rains. In fact this morning I heard that its been raining in Marewaad (about 10kms from Dharwad) since last night. Finally farmers' hope for sowing is lifting.
