Here outer eastern suburb from Dombivli to Badlapur belt had got occasional heavy spell from 10 Aug onward. Also above 100mm rain recorded in 48hrs(combined of 14 & 15 Aug reading).. So nice cloudy cool & comfortable weather here.

Thanks to Rohit for great spatial analysis. Map brings mightiness of Maharashtra, Konkan (all figures multiples of 1000X). Maharashtra only state with equal distribution of rain including interiors. West RAJ is picking up well - in fact like 2012 west RAJ will receive excess by AUG-SEPT.
Thanks to Pradeep for latest news on Amagaon - place looks more near MAHA rather than KAR (border). Still top 3 contenders are close and each can overtake other any time.(my feeling Tamani...)
Panvel MORBE dam overflows...puja was performed.....


Contrast is KAR almost entire interior east is in deficient. South east is in very low rain (BANG,MYS,MANDYA,KOLAR,TUMKUR,Chintamani,chikanhalli,dodhabelapur,pavagada,hindupur,gauribednur...entire rayalseema....). Average rain is just 150mm - 200mm since june. Mandya is lowest with 70mm, BANG(300mm), MYS(150mm).Compared to any other cities these are lowest. If rains continue to elude SE interiors of KAR and Rayalseema then formation deserts is inevitable.
If see 2012 june-sept rain BANG received only 250mm!!!(incredibly low)

Entire Rayalseema - Anantapur after Kolar is facing serious drought.

As predicted, Hyderabad no rains in Hyderabad yesterday daytime. But some showers at night.

Avtansh said...

sset, you are a Legend. "Amagaon - place looks more near MAHA rather than KAR (border)" What? It is INSIDE Karnataka! What do you mean by "more near MAHA"?
Also, Bangalore, for the period 1 Jun to date, has recd. excess rainfall (both city and airport). Check here (table at the end of page 1): http://www.imdbangalore.gov.in/dwr.pdf
In fact, a 25-30% excess. Anyway, don't think your biases will be impacted by any data. My last attempt at trying to convince you - Might be a futile exercise but anyway, good luck!

Unknown said...

rajesh sir , will August end might turn out to be wet for Mumbai and konkan. what do you say?

sset said...

Bangalore rain is so less it cannot even rejuvenate ground water - add to this previous 3 years of drought. Only option is to restore lakes and start tree plantation, restrict further growth as city is over saturated with no natural resources - which as usual only place where people, government lack respect for environment. This is the only city where "sparrows" have vanished forever.
Our group (saytrees) is making best efforts to plant trees face great difficulties to lack of water.

We are all waiting for matheran toy train to start (probably after rains - heard now they have plans to introduce videos inside coaches - to enjoy heavy green wooded hills without looking throw windows, glass/transparent coaches so that undistributed view can be achieved during rains, train driven by rear engine...
