Rajesh, congratulations on your million milestone. To all your team members too. The type of energy that you bring into your blog I can feel the "thunderstorms" through the pages each time. And when you say that the low pressure would move west north west, I can visually see it doing so. It dare not disobey you !!!! Thats the power and enthusiasm you bring into your forecast, a joy for a reader like me with very little technical knowledge on the weather. I can easily see this "million" getting converted to many "millions" in the not so distant future. I also appreciate that you give credit to IMD too as they have also been quite consistent this year. Truly nice of you to do that. Heres wishing Vagaries more success and happiness. May the success thunder and pour on you !!!! Suresh
P.S : I have not met you but the coffee is still on me. Cheers !
