gaurav: We will wait for the exact track, but if it goes as expected, then we see most rains in North Gujarat, and along the west coast till gujarat...some nominal increase in saurashtra from tuesday....now i would say around 20 mms in many places of saurashtra on tuesday.but correct intensity will be known by sunday.

if the low comes near delhi, will it give heavy rains to delhi like the previous low BB2? or the precipitation will be more towards SW quadrant (west mp/raj/guj) this time?
