Rajesh/Sam Khan-> My Apologies- I have still not received response.

Are WD cause for failure of NE monsoons? Severe drought over TN,entire SE KAR, Rayalseema. IF NOT what caused failure of NE monsoons - weak currents fail to reach above 10deg latitude.

Just 1.8 mm in Kathmandu. One more day of rain to go (my guess); lets see how much we get.

Delhi and Lucknow both got around 6 cms of rain. It would be higher in the hills.

That is whether the favourable winds and conditions develop, with positive contour and trough formations..and then fix our estimate and possibilities..then, if we are wrong..vagaries of the weather :-)
