Must be a tough time getting all these data as no one has ever done this earlier to my knowledge. Great Work.

As per IMD(http://imd.gov.in/pages/allindiawxfcbulletin.php)

With the gradual withdrawal of Southwest Monsoon over the northern and central parts of India, conditions are becoming favourable for commencement of northeast monsoon around 17th October, 2019.
