Rajeshbhai, Reading your weekly forecast keeps me calm...since guessing being the habit for me which used to keep me on toes, though it takes out little drama of uncertainty.
Another thing I wanted to share was about 10 C in Mumbai. We had a raging debate with my friend now based in Houston, who narrated that "I do not know what record keeping these people have however I remember on 30/31 Dec 1990 night when I was returning from Mumbai to Bharuch Mumbai temp dropped to 10 Deg. There was a cold front that time when Pune also dropped to 2.7 Verify this if possible." .....well, who else but you can verify!!
You may like to open your notes tucked away and throw some cold blast on the dates...

Dear Rajesh,
Your weekly forecasts is the third thing i look forward to every Sunday (after my morning coffee and Newspaper). Its extremely useful and comprehensive.
BTW you have chosen the right season to rollout weekly forecast. Your weekly predictions will be thoroughly tested and debated during 2012-Monsoon. Keep it going
Have a nice week ahead
Regards, Ananth
Moment we hear word "monsoon" rajesh sir will come in our mind. Monsoon 2011 for Mumbai was very intense, long stayed duration and tiring. Please do not mention about monsoon 2012. Warmness over Mumbai is very welcome now. By the way now I am in Bangalore(my job has shifted here). Bangalore city is facing chronic water problem and power cuts - city looks as if torn apart, war zone [alien has bombed from sky], full of dust and concrete. No wonder now it is "garbage city of india"
Weekly forecast is great concept.. plz continue. Just wanted to know whether min temp will continue to drop below 15c (scz) after this week or we had our mild winter. plz reply
Your weekly forecasts are good, please keep it going.
Cmdr Potey:Thanks..regarding the 1990 temps, have not had time today, but will come back to you after checking my "notes' (they were on paper then).
Ananth: Thanks..sure, the MSN time and predictions are really testing times..hope all goes well!
sset: lets see the SWM this time..hope you have a sucessfull stint in B'lore, and shall keep B'lore regularly on vagaries list now..lets hope for a good SWM for Karnataka.
svt: Thanks..S'Cruz can drop to lowest of 14/15c by the middle of the week..i personally do not see it going down again this season, though we may have a W.D. by the 12th of Feb..
RK: Thanks..Hope to hear and get reports from you to verify the forecasts..
And Thanks for your mail Tyrone (Karachi).
Rajesh, these weekly forecast are awesome. Sitting in N.W.US to know how Pune is doing in terms of waether is just super-cool. Keep up the good work.

I wonder whether you had a chance to read this report, is this not too early to predict monsoon.

Hi
Pl keep up weekly forecast..........
how will summer heat all of us in mumbai this year pl put up your seasonal for mach to june heat i am eagerly waiting for it.
jayesh meha.
Rohit: Thanks for reading from "there"..shall keep u informed.
Ananth/Jayesh:
The "forecast" for the SWM in the Business Line is based by the Japanese agency on the IOD parameter. They have discovered this important parameter, and this depends, at least it seems so, on the behaviour of the La-Nina or El-Nino,to some extent.
La-Nina has still not withdrawn, as put up in vagaries some time back.
So, as we are not too sure of the IOD as yet, its difficult to get the SWM estimate from now..their's is an estimate on "as-is-where-is" or today's situation, but that can change by March.
Cannot work on the summer forecast as yet, we still have Feb to go through..shall work out March estimate after seeing the w.D.s behaviour..surely will put it up when i am confident!
thank you for yoru comments
regards, Ananth
Bang on -for Bharuch - Satyen
Cmdr Potey:Yes, my records do confirm a cold spell on the 30/31 Dec 1990. Mumbai S'Cruz saw 10c, Colaba was 13c. Pune was 2.8c, Nasik 3.2c and Nagpur 3.2c Aurangabad was 4.6c.
Udaipur plummetted to -1c on that nightand Mt Abu -7c !!
