For Aurangabad Readers; (Vagaries column in Lokmat Times Sunday)
"Weather Watch
March seems to be getting off to a wet start ! Already last week's rains are keeping the day temperatures below the normal for this time of the year.
Another spell of rains coming ....and Aurangabad will be getting another rain spell on Monday 9th March. This time, the rains will be persisting till Wednesday. Cool and cloudy days will be the start of next week.Wednesday will be cool. Would expect around 15-20 mms in 3 days of rainfall.
But, surely it will be not so good news for the farmers. The standing wheat crops in the fields are recommneded to be left uncut. The cutting and harvesting would be damagaing as it would be difficult to keep the cut product dry. However, the harvested wheat needs to be kept safe. The mango flowers and raw fruits would see further damage and rotting. It would be a severe damage if the rains persist as expected. All other crops should be left un cut and safe in fields as exposing them would be damaging." (See Vagaries' Aurangabad Forecast here...Page 2
