Adieu El Nino, Hola La Nina: Skymet ups monsoon forecast to 109%
Skymet Vice President - Meteorology GP Sharma says the El Nino effect is now close to neutral. The dreaded El Nino effect, the global weather phenomenon of warm oceanic temperatures associated with dry monsoon spells in the subcontinent, is about to end and may give way to its opposite, the La Nina, says private forecast Skymet. This has prompted the agency to up its India monsoon forecast to 109 percent of the long period average (LPA) from 105 percent earlier. "The El Nino, which disrupted the monsoon pattern over the past two years, has been gradually declining," Skymet's Vice President - Meteorology GP Sharma told CNBC-TV18. "It is close to neutral now. Pacific waters are fairly cool now. The oceanic data suggests monsoon will be better than average. Shortly, we could even switch over the La Nina (cooler-than-average oceanic temperatures)" He added that the monsoon may cover most parts of the country by June, barring regions like Rajasthan. According to Skymet, the probabilities for the monsoon as of today are: - 25 percent chance of excess (seasonal rainfall that is more than 110 percent of LPA) - 37 percent chance of above normal (seasonal rainfall that is between 105 to 110 percent of LPA) - 30 percent chance of normal (seasonal rainfall that is between 96 to 104 percent of LPA) - 5 percent chance of below normal (seasonal rainfall that is between 90 to 95 percent of LPA) - 3 percent chance of drought (seasonal rainfall that is less than 90 percent of LPA) Over the past two drought years, Skymet and its government counterpart IMD have had mixed fortunes on getting their initial forecasts correct. In 2014, Skymet forecast a drought while the IMD said monsoon would be neutral. Last year, the Skymet forecast a normal monsoon while the IMD expected a drought year. This year, both forecasters expect an above-normal monsoon.

abizer: I will surely mention if and when the pre monsoon thunder showers are to start...Will mention when necessary.
SVT: Mentioned my estimate in MW-3 Additional. Should expect proper pre monsoon thunder in Mumbai around 3rd/4th June.
Heavy drizzles here in South Mumbai now.( Tuesday Night)
Good to know SWM is touching our Indian shores in few days
Heavy showers in nagothane(roha) today morning
thanks. So still week away from proper pre monsoon rains.
Sir when start the premonsoon rains in sindh
Sir
When will post latest developments?
am sure everybody will burst into laughter - yesterday night i had a dream vagaries published Mumbai total 4 months rain for 2016 - 3600 mm !
Still AP telangana in heat wave - heat which started in Feb 2016 still continuing longest running in India - Ramagundam 46c (something normal for AP - climatic change?)
well there seems to be delay in advancement of SWM into sri lanka ? I suppose its not yet reached there.
Sir my birthday is upcoming what's the forecast for 30th may for Mumbai ?
well SSET i hope atleast this year you will comment something different than the following things
A) rayalseema lack of rain
B) navi mumbai roaring rains
C) Climate change
D) rains in gujarat and rajasthan _ desert turning into forests
E) South india turning into desert
Please spare other readers from the same old rants which you been saying in last 4+ years.
My sincere request to Rajesh Ji , for once refrain from allowing SSET posting same things over and again, i come to comments section to hear other reader comments on weather , local station updates and interesting queries , not to see SSET repetitive comments
Thank you ,
Ananth
I agree with an anant sir
This year heat wave has spared no region
Rajasthan reached 51. Odisha and west Bengal broke records. Even Ahmadabad recorded all time high.
So just talking about andhra and Karnataka is unreasonable.
Sir,has the monsoon reached srilanka
Heavy rain in parts of bangalore last night. My place received 67 mm of rain. Rain started at 6pm and lashed till 8.00 pm.
IMD bangalore got only 7mm
South , South East and South west parts of the city battered.
My place Gottigere at 205 mm for the pre-monsoon period. 38, 42 and 67 mm of rain in the last 10 days has changed the situation completely.
Normal pre-monsoon is at 180mm. We have exceeded that.
Agreed and correctly said ananth.
Hope SSET provides something new this year :)
Sorry everyone for the late replies:
Hrishikesh: An isolated shower from a passing cloud will continue in parts of Mumbai till 4th.
babar rana: for Sindh its a long term forecast. But no pre monsoon rains till middle of June at least.
