Good and Glad you posted this...shows a lot of effort ..

Recently for the first time, in so many years, admin has deleted a few comments. This was never done before, as we are free to express our individual thoughts.
But repeatative comments makes one feel foolish, as if we have not understood what the comment writer is expressing. The same point repeated over and over again makes mockery of the blog.
Point may be valid, but stressing with exaggerated highlights is underestimating the Vagaries' readers.

Hi Rajesh, thanks again to you and Vagaries team for covering the extended rains this year right till the last day. Has been an awesome season.

Could you also give your views on how you think about the NEM panning out in the coming one months ? I have read a lot of conflicting reports last few days but your view would make things more clear.

Suresh this was expected and you were constantly opposing. NEM is disaster for TN and AP - lifeline for these 2 states. 2 systems - 1 went to GUJ, 2nd went to WB. Peak period is dry for TN/AP unless revival happens. Looks only -IOD and El-nino favours NEM, otherwise since 2015 this is failing, in-fact after 2010 we see many climate variations.
