Edhavadhu kelambudha?
kelambudhu…some tiny storms blooming
tiruvallur 10cm
8 cm
no its 10cm n poonamalee 5cm. dataman got it wrong today 😀
Jon AWS reading always differs….its not wrong.
Withdrawal of southwest Monsoon from northwest India would not commence during next 5 days – IMD
Is there a mistake here? Y would IMD say something that would not happen.
hehehe withdrawal would commence only after those 5 days???? 😆
they should say onset of NEM is not possible until next month
Meaning, no anticylcone possible there next 5 days. Then possibilty is there once moisture content in air decreases
@jon
But thiruvallur AWS says 83 mm?
strange
