Indian Monsoon July Forecast: A more hopeful 1st half and a totally dismal 2nd half for rainfall

First half of July looks slightly better than June. The period 7-17 July looking relative productive in terms of rainfall, irrespective whether a typhoon develops as forecasted by US models. This scenario only flatters to deceive as around the 17, the monsoon is expected to go back to its slump.

FOLK Tamil song depicting drought or NO RAIN situation.

ஏர் பிடிக்கும் தம்பியெல்லாம்
பின்னப் பட்டுநிக்கிறாங்க
அந்தக் குறை கேட்டு
வந்திறங்கு வர்ணதேவா
மேழி பிடிக்கும் தம்பியெல்லாம்
முகஞ் சோந்து நிக்கிறாங்க
அந்தக் குறை கேட்டு
வந்திறங்கு வர்ண தேவா,
காட்டுத் தழை பறித்து
கையெ்ல்லாம் கொப்புளங்கள்
கடி மழை பெய்யவில்லை
கொப்புளங்கள் ஆறவில்லை.
வேலித் தழைபறித்து
விரலெல்லாம் கொப்புளங்கள்
விரைந்து மழை பெய்யவில்லை
வருத்தங்கள் தீரவில்லை,
மானம் விடிவதெப்போ,
எங்க மாட்டுப் பஞ்சம் தீர்வதெப்போ?
ஓடி வெதச்ச கம்பு
ஐயோ ! வருண தேவா
ஊடுவந்து சேரலையே
பாடி வெதச்ச கம்பு
ஐயோ வருண தேவா
பானைவந்து சேரலையே.

After lull in whole June, Rains makes massive entry in Mumbai today.

Mumbai S'Cruz recorded 105 mms rainfall in just 3hrs!!  From 8.30am to 11.30am today..

Pressure is high at 1011 hPa. No fish clouds on west coast as not strong west coast trough.. None of the models or IMD predicted such heavy rain today!! So it is once again proved that predicting west coast rain is toughest of all!!

Badlapur recorded 70 mms rainfall ending 8.30am today.

The Mascarene High with 1032 hPa strength

 (a) The Mascarene High is with strength 1032 hPa is a good sign.

(b) Cross Equatorial winds will start flow over Goa and Maharastra

(c) The possibility of formation of low over Bay is there because of lesser strength SWM wind in the Bay [than compare to Arabian Sea NOW]

(d) West coast will get new revival from today to two days.

(e) By virtue of rainfall statistics Tamilnadu is in the positive side of NORMAL [+4 or so]

(f) Hope this as a better start for SWM rainfall for JULY atleast in Kerala, Karnataka, Konkan& Goa and Maharastra.

Since most of the rivers especially east flowing rivers in Tamilnadu will be getting benefited by this rainfall.
