Mumbai -Pune -Nashik triangle...from Rohit Aroskar...See Stats and Analysis Page


Vagaries' Monsoon Meeting has been arranged for Sunday 30th June at a venue to be decided in Thane...Meeting and Inter Action will be at 4 pm...All are requested to please make it convenient and attend...Await Venue Details...

Posted on Wednesday @ 00.30 am IST

1.      -BB-4 Situated on Tuesday Night in the Northern Chattisgarh and adjoining East Mp region. An UAC lies to the SW of this system, where maximum clouds are associated.
2.       -System likely to move N/NW and enter Southern Up. Consequently it will merge with the monsoon axis.
3.       -West Coast off shore trough persists in current strength.
4.      - Heaviest rainfalls  ( 70-120 mms) next 2 days will be concentrated in the Central Up (Lucknow) area, Northern Bihar and Northern West Bengal.
5.      - Moderate  (30-70 mms) heavy rains along west coast of India, Southern regions of Uttarakhand.
6.      - Light to medium rains (10-30 mms) in West UP, Delhi NCR, Interior Maharashtra, Saurashtra , Gujarat Region and Kerala. 

Forecast for 2 days, Wednesday/Thursday:
Mumbai will get occasional showers, some heavy, but not persistent. Rainfall next 2 days will be around 30 mms /day (average).
Outer townships will have heavy passing showers, with bright intervals at times.

Pune: Cool cloudy days, at around 27c. Decrease in rainfall next 2 days. Light rains in some parts and 5-7 mms/day.

Delhi NCR: Rain chances decrease as BB-4 curves More towards North, and merges with the axis and pushes it Northwards by Thursday. However, isolated thundery developments are possible, with precipitation in some parts of NCR. Where it rains, precipitation could amount to around 10 mms. More chances on Wednesday, as clouding and associated UAC will dissolve in the Northern MP region. Northern MP and adjoining Rajasthan (Jaipur) can get the isolated Thunder storm , and the odd one could travel to NCR (Wednesday).

Surat: An increase in rainfall on Wednesday could bring 15-20 mms in form of some sharp showers. Thursday also will get passing showers amounting to 10-15 mms.


Chennai: Chances of thunder and rain in some parts of Chennai on Wednesday. Measurable amount would be about 7- 10 mms

Rajeshbhai, a flash forecast required, seems weather is closing in suddenly

Unknown said...

Rajesh sir,looks like rain intensity might pick up again in Mumbai by evening

Abhijit Modak said...

Nagpur records 187.4mm rain ending
8.30am today for past 24hrs. In that
99mm fallen between 8.30pm to
11.30pm yesterday.

Neeraj said...

What's the prospect for Nepal; next few days ? not much rain in Kathmandu for the past few days - except occasional heavy outburst lasting 10-20 mins; or some night time rain amounting to around 10 mms at times - but nothing more.

Rajesh said...

Neeraj: See increase in rain for Wed/Thursday as BB-4 merges in Southern UP ...Central Nepal may see more rain in Southern regions

Sam: I would stick to the occasional showers in the day, normal (10-15 mins) duration till Thursday...justifying since system moves away...and i have given some increase towards Surat..so maybe your calculations may be correct

Unknown said...

Thanks Rajesh sir , i also felt the same as 'you have predicted that the rain will creep up north' towards Surat.so Mumbai might benefit in this situation (again it depends totally on the cloud formation and movement)

Unknown said...

Currently as predicted by sir, showers are going on since morning with occasional heavy one, without any break.in Vasai.

Neeraj said...

Ok rajesh sir. most forecast sites not predicting much rain for kathmandu for the next seven days or so - but i guess, we can expect some rain when the low pressure area merges with the axis and the axis shifts north.

Rajesh said...

Sam: please make it possible to attend our meet, all eager to meet you..

Unknown said...

Rajesh sir , have a query,of what i observed' in the morning today at around 8.30 am there was thick black cloud cover which started to circulate round and round and then the wind also suddenly changed from SW-- NE direction and the cloud started to return back in a westerly direction, as it usually happens when we have thunderstorms coming from easterly direction from the (GHATS).And the rain drops were really thick fat which lasted for nearly 3 mins.what could be the reason?

Unknown said...

Yes sir this time definitely i will make up for the meeting.

Unknown said...

I am sorry sir, if my question sounds too childish.

Would have loved to attend the Vagaries meeting on June 30th. Unfortunately too short a notice to make my travel plans!

Atul P Naik said...

First to make the 1000 mm league from Goa is Valpoi - 1010.9 mm, at the base of the western ghats in west Goa (45 Kms from Panjim). Pernem (32 Kms from Panjim)on the North Goa border at 934.8 mm is not far behind. But Panjim, whose reading is often published as Goa reading is only 653 mm as of June 26, 2013!
