Data by Vagarians

 Monsoon 2019...Extra ordinary... Down and up !

The 2019 South West Monsoon has certainly kept all amateur and professional meteorologists on their toes. Starting late, and then picking up to record levels in some parts, while remaining deficit in some parts..to be expected in a vast country like India.

But, Vagaries Started its Monsoon chase in April..when the Monsoon Watch-1 was posted.
We start, by first analysing where and how the Monsoon actually begins, or takes "Birth".
Its way down South in the Southern Indian Ocean. At the time begins (to observe when the pacific and South Indian Ocean Typhoons tire out.
Thus allowing the High Pressure systems, Called the Mascrene Highs " to form.
As we see, this huge global phenomena of air and winds rushing from High pressure to low pressure on a huge scale.
Once formed properly, the winds from these Highs rush towards the Equator,and ultimately in June towards the Low pressure over the Indian Sub Continent, as the South West Monsoon.

Monsoon 2019:

This year, the Monsoon arrival was erratic and very late, ...
8th June commencement from Kerala, 25th June Mumbai, 28th June Gujarat, 5th July Delhi and 19th July Entire country.

For the peninsula region, the arrival was late, and almost late elsewhere. We see a huge deficit as of the end of June...-33%.

Then, the Depressions from the Bay started, and covered most of Central India and West Coast. August was almost on record levels for Mumbai and September rained an all time high figure for the month in Mumbai.
August  alone All India was +15%, and September alone was +48% !
2nd Wettest September since records began in 1901.
Result: One of the good Monsoons in 25 years...amongst the Best at +10%....1994 saw +12.5%.

As the official Monsoon season comes to an end, I present the final Monsoon Report of the year with an almost 10% above normal performance. What a spectacular year this has been, and I have the added pleasure of preparing and posting this report from the beautiful state of Sikkim!
