Guess we Bangloreans have been really good. The rain gods might give in to our prayers yet again. Its become real cloudy with some strong cool breeze in Jayanagar. Hope it rains as I am getting out of work.

Same here at Mysore Road!

Dark clouds and all signs of a good shower.

I just it does not turn out as yesterday, all show and a 15 minutes drizzle at around 10.30pm! :(

Rained in Langford Road about an hour and a half ago. But Jayanagar is as dry as Gujarat! :(

Weather is awesome though

@ Luke,

It was my good old Sony DSC-H9. Got my memory card empty, looked for higher ground, put the cam on burst mode and clicked away. Took about 800 or 900 pictures to get the few i uploaded.

Guys, Party time, its been raining cats and dogs in Banaswadi since almost 3 hours now, only paused for a brief duration and then resumed, seems Rain God has relented us with his kindness,

Just finished some Pakoras and Hot Chai

Some Pics.

Ayyo!! It has started raining in Rajajinagar now and I'm still in office. Of all the days, I chose today to come on my bike

vinaydas · 13th April 2010, 21:02

loved driving in the city in the rain!!
no pesky bike guys cutting across, auto guys driving more carefully than old ladies trying not to splash water into their vehicles. God i love driving in the rain.
