Winter tease


When the temperature in Mumbai dips to 20C we say it is winter. Since it stays for just a week, no blankets are left unturned. For the past few days though, winter has been playing games with us, teasing us. There were times last week when the temperature dipped, but rose again only to dissappoint.

    What would be ideal
    would if we could
    move with the weather
    following the weather we wanted
    wherever it took us.

    I remember being maha amused when I used to see women sporting shawls and even sweaters when it was 'winter' in Mumbai. But wait, December and Jan might be cooler :)

    Mumbai has just two seasons - humid and very humid:)

    Winter may tease a little at first, but rarely disappoints for long.

    I laugh when my friends from Mumbai says that they have winters. Winters start when temperatures fall below 10C in North. Else it's pleasant...Just kidding...

    Now in US, I think even my North Indian definition of winters will change...

    Hello there Mumbai! Winter you say? See how we all laugh, but that isn't fair. They say they have winter in Florida too and in California, but they aren't playing hockey on frozen ponds. But, still, to all of you in more temperate climes, your winter is winter to you, which I expect can be more pleasant than your summers.

    Winter approaches here in Michigan and I must trim down my asparagus bed, clean and mulch for winter. The days are shorter. I better get going.

    Nice to read a 55 about weather in a faraway place.
    Cheers!
