Abhijit Modak said...

Thanks Pradeep John (Vagaries Rainman) for detailed inputs

Rohit Aroskar said...

This reminds me of heavy rainfall event over Mumbai region of 26 July 2005 when many stations received over 700 mms and 2 stations over 1000 mms within 24 hrs

Avtansh said...

@Rohit Do you have the list of all stations from 26-27 July 2005 which got more than 400-500mm in a day?

Rohit Aroskar said...

Mount Abu more 119 mms till 11 am today

Rohit Aroskar said...

Abizer kachwala said...

Rohit ,do you have data for rainfall in Nagothane on 25-26th July,2005???I am very eager to know as I was just 4 at that time

Shri said...

WoW.!!Mt.Abu did give a tough fight to 26th July 2005 Mumbai rains.

sset said...

PJ from Kea blog already stated about Raj extreme rains yesterday - 1000mm in 72hrs and it happened! 5th time extreme rains for GUJ since july. Unusual sustained low pressure needs to be analyzed - 900mb?? More powerful than 2013 GUJ floods.

It will be incorrect to term Rajasthan as desert. RAJ/GUJ have NOT seen any droughts for last 5 years. GUJ/RAJ/MAHA suffering from horrible floods while entire southern India suffers from horrible droughts - worst than 2016 - (some -ve correlation)

Rohit mentioned about water conservation/borewells - this will work if at least if it rains - but 70% southern India is suffering from continuous droughts for multiple years then only solution is river linking and coastal areas desalination (which is expensive)

Details of the massive Mumbai rainfall also available in vagaries extreme blog.

Avtansh said...

@Rohit Awesome. Thanks!

Abhijit Modak said...

@ Abizer: Nagathone not had gauge 12 years back. so only at taluka places rain was used to measure in Tehsil offices.. So I will give you Roha reading.. As rain belt moved to south north with offshore effect so Roha-Poladpur saw heavy rain and flooding around 24 July 2005 to 26 July 2005.

Sudhagad recored 523 mms on 26 July 2005
Roha recorded 475 mms on 25th July 2005
Poladpur recorded 589 mms on 26 July 2005
Mangaon recorded 357 mms on 26 July 2005
Mahad recorded 352 mms on 26 July 2005

Cumulus arjun said...

Thanks rohit sir for replying me

Rohit Aroskar said...

Sset has done a commentable job ..Even 'varsha bhagwan' has listened and given very good rainfall to Raj/ Guj ..
It's a watershed moment ..
Either he should start his own blog or he should be aptly felicitated by creating his own page on this blog ..
Bloggers please suggest some good names for the same ..

Abhijit Modak said...

Yeah correct Rohit. It's indeed catastrophic ! Mount Abu 734mm today & 773mm yesterday so total 1507mm in 48 hrs ! Got annual avg in just 2 days !!

Abhijit Modak said...

Mount Abu seasonal rainfall 2401 mms till today !! Which is above normal by +1860 mms !!

So has crossed Chennai,Kolkata annual avg in just 2 days & Delhi, Pune avg in just 1 day & now verge on crossing Mumbai annual avg also

sset said...

Rohitji -> It should have been other way round-> Will monsoon revive over southern India suffering from chronic drought or SWM is done for good over south India. Tirupathi boiling @ 41c (summer phase 2) No nature/GOD showing any mercy even over SW coast!

Forecasted East rough  Let's look into the 3rd week of March ( 17th - 21st). Mumbai : Hot weather likely for Mumbai region this week, ty...
