I say, sadly, its not going to be more than 270mm in Kathmandu this august, i was hoping for a bit more, something like 350 mm .September is next. Average is around 180 mm. I hope that June,July,August,September average total of 1147 mm is reached. Looking at the situation now, it does not seem likely,but as i say "average is average because it is average". there is a likelihood that average is maintained, some years it rains a little less, some years a little more, but it would be near the average.
Rajesh how do you tell whether a system like AS2 currently in north Arabian sea will deepen further in this case to 996 mb?
