Caterpillars are beautiful too…

Heads need to roll at @[email protected] for the utter horror they are putting Vasai-Virar through. This is ordinary and routine incompetence, not extraordinary #CycloneTauktae issues. #VasaiVirar #Nalasopara #powercuts
It seems I accidentally deleted my own tweet, but here's another satellite image for why it ain't gonna stop raining any time soon in #Nalasopara #VasaiVirar #Palghar #Mumbai #MumbaiRains #CycloneTauktae
Okay, so the deluge isn't going to stop any time soon. See where it is written Palghar, and that nice curving dark red cloud avalanche coming at it? We live just under the word in #Nalasopara. This is going to be a loooong innings...

Even with conservative use of power, no idea how long inverter can last. Working so far with no fan use and minimum lights use since last night. Laptop charged, phone charged. Laptop can charge phone if inverter gives out. Peak inefficiency #CycloneTauktae #VasaiVirar #Nalasopara
