Rajesh i have one little query(my knowledge is not too great on meteorology),but why would a northerly wind cause rainfall?It would be blowing from inland and should not be moisture laden,right?
Non stop, pounding rain over Navi Mumbai. Rajesh - when is this going to stop?? Mumbai needs some bright sunlight atleast for a week. Let the rains go down south! Compared to last year 15/jul/2010 and this year 15/jul/2011 how does rain figures stand?? Must be more than excess!! By the way rains are likely to cross 2000-2500mm by july itself?
@rajesh, yes, this low pressure vortex has given heavy rains from south gujrat to konkan. Reports of flooding in ratnagiri & sindhudurg district, Huge cracks in 'protection wall' on konkan railway track near pomandi. Heavy rains will continue till wednesday. Heaviest rain (over 200 ml of rains in a day) could be in bhavnagar n bharuch district in south gujart. sunday to wednesday total rainfall for mumbai & suburbs (heaviest on today & tuesday)could be 300 ml (mumbai airport already got 90 ml since 3 am).
