Delighted to note lake areas rainfall in mumbai...although city and suburbs missed rains, rains hit the right area for city

Sir, when do you expect the withdrawal to recommence in NW India?

sset said...

With current extreme spells spanning tomorrow also - GUJ will enter into excess zone!! RAJ heavy spells to start (guess high pressure turns into low pressure monsoon back to active phase instead of withdrawl). Entire MAHA records extreme rains - spectacular water falls over AJANTA/ELLORA - for me caves are 7 wonders of world - just like for MUMBAI ELEPHANTA!! September rains still elude BANGALORE / MYSORE....
Actually similar trend of 3 digit rains were noticed over MAHA/GUJ/RAJ in september month last year - 2014...

@sset Please stop lying and misleading people. Yesterday you said Maharashtra excess and now Gujarat excess. Don't facts and figures matter to you at all?

@rajesh sir It is now extremely infuriating to read comments on the blog as it has been hijacked by sset's incessant propaganda. Many others have pointed this out too. You already have moderated comments - Request you to use your discretion and block such comments. I understand thw argument that everyone is free to express their opinion but this has crossed that - After a point/limit that opinion starts becoming an agenda.

Thank you.

Sir, why did Nuh in NCR received such extremely heavy rain? Why rain was so localised?

sset said...

Navi Mumbai extreme torrential rains since yesterday late evening pouring water falls - guess it should have reached 150-200 mm in 8 hrs. Dams around navi mumbai would have filled...Deluge in action...Rains are of very high intensity... this is heaviest ever seen for sept..(raining similar to june 2015)

sset said...

Early dawn torrential rains still lashing navi mumbai...
Mumbai has deficiency of just (-300mm), Ahmadabad just (-150mm) with ongoing extreme spells this will become neutral and move towards excess !!!
Monsoon continues to elude southern India - coastal KAR, KER with huge negative deficiencies - interiors no rain (all lows move towards central India), AP also no extreme spells - Hyderabad even if closer to Orissa missed all rains...

Unknown said...

Next low may bring very heavy rain to Hyderabad, Bangalore, Karnataka interior. Will wipe out deficiency of not only these places but total India deficit.May even reach Cherrapunji levels of 1000s of mm. Waterfalls likely everywhere. Heaviest ever not just for Sept but ever ever....NEM going to push the SWM out of India till 2016. Keep reading this space for more action...:):):):) lol....with sincere apologies to Rajesh for a Sunday morning fiction....Suresh

sset said...

GUJ surat another hat rick 200 mm as of today morning. Anyway Vagaries already forecasted this.

Saurabh said...

Dear SSET
Here is the cumulative rainfall map from IMD.

http://www.imd.gov.in/section/hydro/dynamic/rfmaps/daily.jpg

The entire SE India is in green. Coastal AP is in fact +18 which is the second highest surplus percentage this monsoon in the entire country.

Also you compare Mumbai to Coastal Karnataka, a city to a region. Compare the regions. To make my point Delhi is surrounded by areas where the deficit is -40 but Delhi itself has a much much lower deficit this monsoon. These things happen.

Here are the deficits from the west coast.

Konkan and Goa -31
Coastal Karanataka -24
Kearala -27

There is not much to choose from, the deficits are very similar. That is why weather enthusiasta like me are confused when you use terms like "huge negative deficiencies" for some of these regions and "neutral(deficit)" for some others.
Regards
Saurabh
