This blogpost was somehow lost in the drafts - had written 2.5 years back, publishing now!
When I came to Delhi in December, it was cold and at nights it was very much cold. The temperatures continued going down, till one more sweater had to be added by the end of December, and a shawl over it by the end of January. February promised to be pleasant, however second week of February also played spoilsport and turned out cold.

February end was pleasant, and I thought that now I can enjoy the famous spring season weather. Holi came on 1st of March, and with the bonfires that we all had lit, nature seemed to have taken the cue. Suddenly from the second of March the temperature turned hot...the warmth disappeared and the sun merrily blazed down on all. The woolens were thrown out with a gusto and cotton came out to battle the heat. Fans were turned on and heaters were packed off. Welcome to the Great Indian Summer ...
What surprised me was the dramatic changeover ...there was no indication, no signs...it just happened all of a sudden! It seems nature has its own whims and fancies, to which we mortals are subjected. Bow to thee, Nature!
