"..cities in #Punjab are expected to receive spells of heavy rain today and tomorrow, while #Chenab and #Ravi rivers will be flooded due to an incessant downpour in #India’s northern states, which has increased the water discharge towards downstream areas."

"The #monsoon which started on June 25 has so far resulted in the death of 80 people while 142 were injured..."

Just lived through my first ever 50°C HeatIndex day ever,

5 hours of which were without mains electricity due to 'load shedding', so no air conditioning, just fans.

I am so sapped of energy, and in disbelief...

Hv to go check up on the stray kittens im fostering in the garden soon, as soon I feel less weak. Already lost a handful of shade plants to the heat.
