November Chill

After a rather comfortable October which saw festivities and cricket watching at an unusual high, we are in to a chilly November. And what a start it has had... Cyclone Phyan (what an unusual name!) threatened to inflict a lot more damage to the city of Mumbai than it did.

The Cyclone brought some relief though, in the form of rains and the city was sheltered from the heat with a consistent cloud cover over 3 days. Hope the water-supply situation has improved now even as notices were found floating with more bad news for frequent bathers (just a day before the cyclone made it intentions clear).

I really hope the chill continues till the end of the year 2009... and what an year it has been!! The fast changing climate conditions now underscores that we should stop thinking of any month belonging to a particular season. In short it would be... stark sunny, raining cats and dogs, or wintry cold at any given day of any given month. So Mumbaites do not be surprised if we have a snow cover in the city this Winter!!

Let us hope for the best, take care - Cheers.
