Monsoon 2020 has set in

On June 4th, IMD officially declared onset of South West monsoon 2020 over coastal Karnataka. We can also sense the onset by the free flow of clouds from SW direction towards mainland. The monsoon is yet to gain momentum though. Thanks to out of blue cyclones, the monsoonal pattern fleetingly getting distracted and thus hindering the normal advancement. We still have sunny skies at native which is unusual at this point of time. MET department are hopeful of accelerated monsoon spell from 9th June.

Meanwhile, I am enjoying the terrace from my rented apartment. The sky raisers are threatening to obstruct the views permanently. I don't have control over the ever growing concrete pinnacles. Till the last drop, I will enjoy the elevated view and grab some timelapse.

During my casual stroll atop terrace, I catch these magnificent thick monsoon clouds. These are assorted pictures photographed in a week of time during our evening terrace visit. It rains in city area sometimes and sometimes over head. Consequently, sometimes we can only experience thick clouds with occasional thunder and cold winds. Somehow these nimbus clouds lure me to grab pictures in burst. I cannot resist that temptations. Many times, that impatience leads to illegible pictures which I repent once i download it to my desktop. This time, it did not happen even though emotions were high. I clicked pictures absorbing the beauty of monsoon and enjoyed the distant storm whenever possible.

Finally a beautiful sunset
