Hrishikesh said...

Hrishikesh said...

Sir the times of india site has written that IMD has forecasted pre monsoon showers in mumbai in next two days are they possible I believe on ur forecast as IMD is wrong most of the time to see the news this is the link http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/mumbai/Despite-drizzle-Mumbai-continues-to-sizzle-at-39-degrees-Celsius/articleshow/34083006.cms

Rajesh said...

Junaid: Eastern outer townships wll be hot on Wednesday, around 40c, but with "flat" clouds from Thursday, days will be couple of degrees less, and nights warmer.

Hrishikesh: They have also said that Colaba was 39c on Tuesday in ame article, which was of course wrong...no pre monsoon showers yet.

Wasim said...

Why is calcutta havung such high temperatures at a stretch without a single squall in April when can we get relief from this dry hot weather?

Neeraj said...

Quite hot today with high of 32.6 c, low still in the manageable range , 12.5 this morning @kathmandu. Hope it would not get hotter than this - though it's not very uncomfortable even during the hottest time of the day with humidity at around 30% at 2 o clock.

Rajesh said...

Khyati: No seasonal low forming near about Mumbai to bring rain...shall keep all informed on blog if any

Prabhu Archana: Possible thunder showers in Kerala in last week of april...regarding quantum of rain in Idduki, i am making an analysis now, but will first reveal the date in Monsoon watch series. Quantum will be in early May. Actually if you read the MW series, i have mentioned it is very difficult to give the amount of rain at this stage..

Wasim: Kolkata is now experiencing a phenomena called temperature inversion. The warm air is trapped at sea level. due to lack of winds, the air is trapped, and that is the reason why the nights are also hot.
Expect the SSE winds to start from Friday, to provide some relief..Have forecasted hot till then..

Ron said...

thought the humidity was on a lower side today..it was more of dry air than anything.Made it unbearable

Unknown said...

Agreeing with rajesh sir ,
The temp inversion can also lead to pollution such as smog being trapped close to the ground which currently kolkata is experiencing at morning hours, with possible adverse effects on health.
and than to add , up to this effect,
we come across another weather event known as "capping inversion" ,
here the temp inversion has the ability to suppress convection(thunderstorm forming process) by acting as a "cap"
//
so if this capping effect is broken for any of several reasons, convection of any moisture present can then lead into violent thunderstorms , .....
now we need to see weather we end up with this event on the later part of this week or starting of next week in kolkata , though , we also need unstable atmosphere , for this event to take place, so even though the tunnel is dark , we have a small light appearing at the end of the tunnel ...

KHYATI PANDIT said...

Sir when we Mumbai people would get relief from such high temperatures of 37 n 39 degress

Hrishikesh said...

A high of 38C forecasted for Mumbai even today hopefully Mumbai will soon get strong thundershowers which will bring down the temperature Mumbai can only pray for a miracle with easterly winds and 36C at 11:30am would expect temps to bake Mumbai at 3pm
