Summer

Summer has arrived in Delhi - yesterday the temp hit 97, today and tomorrow more of the same, Monday it's up to 99 and then Tuesday, 101!

Everyone told me that the worst of it is from June to August; and since I'm out of here (for a while) at the end of May, I figured I'd miss the really hot stuff, but in my mind it's just hot and miserable once you cross that 100 degree mark.

Every time I've been outside in the last couple of days, I can't get the Lovin' Spoonful's "Summer in the City" out of my head:

Hot town, summer in the city
Back of my neck, getting burnt and gritty

The gritty part is particularly true, Delhi seems to be permanently covered in layers of dusty and dirt.
