The disturbance, which gave flooding rains to Madhya Pradesh, persists and is expected to slowly move westwards. Under its influence, rains will continue for central India. Another feature which lies over North Bay and its adjoining areas would strengthen in the coming days, leading to widespread rainfall for West Bengal, parts of Odisha and north eastern states. These weather systems will pull considerable amount of moisture from Arabian Sea towards west coast for next few days. This process will strengthen the offshore trough resulting in active phase of monsoon for the entire west coast. Apart from the existing systems, a new disturbance is set to develop and bring torrential rainfall for Gujarat and parts of Maharashtra.
Extreme South TN and Nilgiris district has better prospect of getting thunderstorms due to the revival of monsoon in west coast, while rest of TN will remain mostly dry with some isolated thunderstorms.
Chennai will witness max temperature around 37C with a possibility of isolated showers during evening/night.
Coimbatore’s max temperature will be 30-31C. Pleasant weather will continue for next couple of days.
Madurai is expected to be warm with temperature reaching 37-38C. Thundercloud development is possible in some areas during evening/night.

did it rain anywhere in Chennai yesterday?
Yes. PJ put some rainfall figures yesterday. Tambaram might be the highest rains.
that figure should be of Sunday
PJ comment:
Rainfall from tonight TS. Meena gets 3 mm. Not a bad day considering that not even drizzle was expected.
Tambaram – ?
Sholinganallur – 9
Kunnathur beyond Kelambakkam – 4
Chennai AP (Meenambakkam) – 3
Minjur – 2
Poonamalle – 2
Ambattur – 2
Taramani – 1
Kolapakkam – 1
Kelambakkam – 1
Thiruporur – 1
that’s too less. I expected more seeing the radar
Yes, rainfall is less only yesterday. But I think today we will get clear data.
Tambaram area should have got the most rains.
Yes, It was raining here… Easily more than 1 CM. Started around 10.30 pm
Mumbai radar is not working for the past few days 😦
This satellite animation also confirms that Mumbai under good rainfall event for the past 6.0 hrs

Hope this doesn’t happen anytime soon!
Today any possible in delta district?

Good Rain possibility today in Chennai and Surroundings and max temp is expected to be 36 – 37
wow..it looks everywhere and everyone good +ve about today’s Chennai rains. Its good then 🙂
U only not positive?
OMG…my wet spell limit is July 17th-21st. Then why can’t I??
Today is the last day..then when again?
According to PJ, we had best chances on July 22,23 &24. Let’s hope for the beast.
why u missed 21st.
PJ, Yesterday your comment mentioned about 22,23&24. I might have missed about your 21st comment.
Wow…what a comeback by WP-typhoon Halola and forecasted to intensify cat.1 system.
did it rain in anywhere in chennai yesterday.
Yes madampakam it rained
btw are u in madambakkam area ?
yes. Tambaram might have received > 1 CM.
Even in velacherry like 4mm
Mid level air is heavier, 500 hPa pressure level is down to 5.84 km across the bulk of India ,
http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/nwp/00hgfs_500contour.htm
this is what i quoted gokul. and chennai falls in the trough.
http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/nwp/24hgfs_500wind.htm
PJ…would be great if you can explain its significance.
Balaji, we are under the influence of UAC which is over West Madhyapradesh / Gujarat like an one big trough from Gujarat to Andaman

and in the lower level, it more defined and more moisture.

Thnks
Yes PJ , one supporting factor truly …
GTS, TBM radar image looked threatening yesterday…Rainfall quantum?
Could be close to 20-25 mm max., waiting for PAC update

It is a RADAR product, Precipitation Accumulation
Wow..That’s fantastic..Was a big red pottu over TBM east.
smashing rains for 20min inin chitlapakkam area yesterday nit 1020-1040pm
easily more than 1cm
Good morning pj…ur experience with enthusiasm energy eagerness makes u d entertainer of everyone…neighbours envy owners pride…my prayers to god to keep u rsrao Partha n all dedicated selfless persons healthy and happy forever…
OMG why sridhar suddely this post.
Forecasting has a lots of ups n downs…mother nature loves to test our patience…people get excited when forecasting falls in line but gets frustrated when forecasting fails..not many can understand how tough it would be for u people too…u forecasters need a lot of strength to keep going..thats y such a post…hope July n Aug swm period turns to be a good one..
Illa Pradeep, Sridhar nalla yosichi dhaan potu irrukaaru..
Sridhar, partha and Rao are very nice and soft persons. They can take pounding from everyone (evalavu adichalum thangauvanga) and yet they are dedicated and they move on. Thats their speciality. Unlike me who can be easily provoked. They are real selfless persons. Dont group me with them.
PJ, you are too kind hearted person and can easily forget the past and move on easily further. Partha is unique and has some special feature of easy going. Frequently I exhibit little temptation.
Sridhar-Have mentioned this before here..Pied-Piper of this blog…Plays the magic Rain pipe at the slightest smell of it…..Bloggers follow him..Eight of ten times gets it right..Strong believer in his observations and almost sticks to it..
Appo appo sand vechu wind direction vera kandu pidipaaru.. 🙂
Sridhar Sir,
I am pavam, still child, romba pugazhatheenga, aluthuduven, aludhuduven….
From tomorrow massive drop in Temperature seen in Chennai
Massive meaning? We won’t touch 30?
below normal temp due to upper air trough.
didnt i get temp last time when we got below 35 ?
This is July!
can u remember which month we are in ?
No need to predict rain.
Already PJ told ” every day is TS day”.
Mudiyala sami.
PJ,
I could sense the change in temp for the past 2 days.
When i wake up in the morning, i would come to hall and switch on the fan, but i would still sweat, but for the past 2 days, i feel the mornings are little comfortable that i don’t sweat immediately, it takes time. This may be due to late night rain consistently for the past 4 days, bringing down minimum temp.
From now on we will see drop in night temp below 27C, both the stations will not witness 30C, when we think on this, it is giving more joy.
experts, can u guys let me know the rain forecast for Mumbai for the next 2 to 3 days. there is a trip being planned. thanks in advance
As P.J mentioned y’day rainy ( happy) days continued, TBM would have got nearly 1cm,
PJ, cool
Shri,
We just had some passing showers in and around TBM, but Sholinga would have got good amount, as i was passing the Sholinga lake, could see the dry areas have become wet and water increased.
Raijin must know the difference in that lake, since his office is just opposite.
This is the lake i was seeing for the past 2 years, it has some majik, even for small rain, it gets plenty of water, the recharge is unbelievable.
it was pounding for nearly 20 mts, i believe it should be min 1cm,
where are you residing?
sanatorium
i go with shri,heavy rain in chitlapakkam for 20min
Precipitation Accumulation at 08.30 AM shows, 2-3 CM rain in and around OMR, especially in Sholinganallur.
As i said it was not widespread across the city, this trend will continue even today.
We will get widespread TS from tomorrow overnight or 23rd early morning.
20-25 mm all across our area
I never feel the rain when i am inside my room, i will not even hear the sound of rain. Hence i would wake up in the morning and see the neighbor’s house terrace, with amount of water logging i will understand, how much it would have rained.
Today morning when i saw that terrace, the water was very very less, hence i thought it would have been a passing shower.
Oh…does it not drain out ?
no, they are going to pay big price.
it has to get evaporated by sun.
Oh no ….they should take action asap
during SWM season its fine, evaporation will be quick, think about NEM season, it will become swimming pool.
Lol…yes yes ….
those are illegal construction, no patta for them.
Oh ..okay okay ….
so they r indirectly helping water vapour to pump up thru evaporation!!
that very good point selva, at least the houses surrounded them will get heavy rain.
Lol ..yes ….easy job for warm air , and instant energy
Without Rains Min Temperature was 27 today early morning in Nungambakkam. Pleasant mornings are back after april. Next 9 months is going to be a joyful and comfortable with bumper NEM 😉
i get very much happy whenever, and where ever, the 35 kms circle limit of chennai gets rains, since most people live here, and this circle is what failed to get rains often
Gokul,
When i was in T Nagar, if it rains overnight, i will come out in the morning and see the road for water logging, based on the water logging i will come know how much it would have rained.
But here in our area, the water logging happens only in main roads, our streets are very clean and no water logging happens, hence it becomes tough to understand on how much rain poured.
When i left home today morning, i saw the street road were wet on both corners, not even single drop held up. The same thing happened during Saturday rain, after smashing rain for nearly 1 – 2 hours, when i came down, i could see the road were clean, not a single drop stagnating.
Yes Partha , water never stagnates across our area, except for TBM-Velachery Main road. Even in 2005 , Baaz cyclone , 31 cm in some 9 hours , next morning i was able to see only a calm stream of water running side ways …no sign of deluge rains , possible reason should be the sloping terrain leading to many lakes around
Also even small rain brings high recharge of ground water, hope it should be maintained in the coming days.
If population looms large, entire scenario will be changed quickly
Jeet,
As GTS said, it would not, since it is already at developed stage, all houses built, no vacant land. Hence it would remain the same i feel.
I meant…more and more consuming of natural resources will lead to..infact core city has a bore water depth in 20-30 ft some 12-15 years back….now its beyond 120ft…so population matters
The only threatening issue is the increasing number of high rise buildings , all have loomed large in the last 2 years ….here in the surroundings ….
Exactly that’s what I mean..
Yes can remain the same way , here it is planned and controlled development , so it would be fine
to cut the cost of relaying roads again and again suburbs areas opt for concrete roads, this proves to be disaster, and allows only less water in to ground, this will dear them in long run
no, my street was having concrete last year, but now they relaid with thar, henceforth they are going to use thar only, it was decided by township.
Partha, there can’t be any assurance… It may get changed any time in future who knows
Shri,
When you come to my house, you can see the plantations done around my flat.
You can see this in all houses in my area, people leave some soil ground around their houses, where the rain water penetrates to underground. The same thing i did in my flat. Once the water goes into underground, the ground water recharges faster. Every one of should leave some portion as soil, should not make completely concrete.
In my flat, If you see near the compound wall on the four sides, we have left soil and planted near 20 plants, it has to grow in next 2 years time, also the area is surrounded by lots of trees, hence it looks green.
nice initiative
Pathasir..Good morning..have you done that in Urapakkam also? 🙂
Good morning odm….odm returns…need rain cheers to greet u..
Good morning Sridhar…neenga namma area aalu la? 😀
Sss..adam city man..tngo colony in between the two subways..just near mount station..
that is useless flat i am having, that builder is a kathukuti, no space let out by him to leave soil.
the only difference between Rajakilpakkam flat and Urapakkam flat is, the Rajakilpakkam flat has stilt but Urapakkam the flat is constructed at ground floor also, hence the space available only for car park near the gate, that too konjam push panna car gate kittal lighta idikkum, but we did rain water harvesting. The water falls in terrace will get into underground directly.
oh..but Gudu-Ura-Vandu areas have got excellent rains this season
i like the aliases…
ODM,
Urapakkam area itself has lots of soil, roade soilla than pa irukku, athu nala kavala illa..
just kidding, but dont compare me with many here, still i dont understand many factors in weather, but in those areas many are experts here.
people like GTS, Selva, PJ, Rao, Jupi, Sudharsan, Guest11K, ODM, Jon, they are far far ahead of me, there is a huge gap between me and them, i am just trying to close in at least an inch, will make me very very happy.

MSLP anomaly chart for last 4 days.. we could see Mascarene high strengthened as the anomaly seen a sharp rise from mean values and monsoon trough also deepened as well with presure fall was seen evident
POAMA latest outlook is out and it is expecting strong positive IOD during AS period and weak positive IOD during ON period. It is also showing strong el nino in coming moths.
If the above forecast holds true then we can expect good NEM.
http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/poama2.4/poama.shtml
Most of the weather models ( POAMA, ECMWF, JAMSTEC, NASA) expecting strong positive IOD in coming months except CFS.
The value of IOD has to increase in September in comparing to August. It can fall from October, that is not an issue, let it be in increasing trend from August to September.
Hvy rains lash Mumbai since overnight/early morning train services hit..som snaps frm media
Great.. Mumbai is back with a bang!!!
Latest ENSO Update.
ELNINO strengthens again, likely to become stronger ELNINO in the history.
Nino 3 has touched 2 degrees for the first time since ELNINO arrived.
Nino 3.4 and 4 shows increasing trend with 0.2C in the past 2 weeks.
Latest SOI -19.2, indicates strong ELNINO.
IOD reduced to 0.02 from 0.27.

IMD’s experimental seasonal forecasts r out!! complete change from previous forecast
what about OND??
look at the oct
This October might pull a D or DD after NEM onset.
SWM likely to withdraw early.
here is the SON
ftp://210.212.167.211/pub/sfmlrf2015/JULY/india/lrf_ind_ppt_JUL_SON_2015.gif
i think the coming months update from IMD will increase the intensity for October and November.
Forecast for November..
overall tis one reflecting ecmwf http://s24.postimg.org/fomb49had/lrf_ind_ppt_JUL_SON_2015.gif
Mettur inflow increases to 18945 cusecs.
October looksvery good for TN. How good is this model Sel ?
its okay!! they got it right last year!!
One can expect repeat show of 17th Oct this year also
whats special about October 17th
Last year 17th Oct NEM started and it poured like anything
poured like nothing. utter failure pa
Mr Shankaran Sir – This is 18th Oct 2014 data – from Mr PJ – which I have posted in FB-How much it rained in Chennai (Just one day) (approx fig all in mm)—————————–
Mahalingapuram – 156
Ramanadhapuram – 146
Besant Nagar – 127
Anna University – 115
Nungambakkam – 114
Meenambakkam – 96
Sathyabama University – 93
Puzhal – 60
y cant we start this year ion Oct 1st itself?
OMG november looks too good for entire India
IRI, ECMWF agrees with the above scenario.
What could be the reason for this above normal rainfall for India during November.
PJ, you and me know very well we cant trust next months forecast today. Then how come 3 month forecast?
World’s best long range models ( ECMWF, IRI, JAMSTEC) expecting above normal rainfall for India during OND period. Now IMD agrees with them.
I have been expecting excellent NEM in 2015 since October 2014. You don’t need forecast for that.
Oh no
but Maharashtra, M.P, Gujarat getting rainfall during NEM season is very rare.
Most of the models showing good rainfall for MH, MP and Gujarat during coming NEM.
tats bcos of elnino condition..even last year it was same
One doubt….if odm makes a comment you can find Novak (head Shiva) follows very soon with a lightning comment….so I feel something is matching
best way is to get keaadhaar
Yes…. Its will be delivered within this nem…probably on pre nem meet
no door delivery. then each will apply 3. Only in person handing over with 3 witnesses
Yes it will be given in person
I hand over this project to you
asku busku
Superb move…good move for amb shankaran
Mr Pradeep John was mentioning that tomorrow onwards we will have drop in temperature – Even today though Sun appears to be very hot, but pleasant breeze compensating it
today it will be above normal sir. Tomorrow mid-high level clouds will be back.
But hot winds or heat wave are all gone now
We all will freeze with the drop in temperature
I think it may not be meant for Nunga
pj,tis was their forecast issued last year during tis part of year(july) .. and we know how last year oct was .
and overall forecast http://s16.postimg.org/n914lv50l/lrf_ind_ppt_JUL_SON_2014.gif
Yes sel, they got last october and this May spot on. But this June was failure.
PJ , whether Aug will be better for Chennai compared to July this year ?
y not. First you need to decide if July was good or bad?
July is good so far… compare to last year atleast…
Govind sir. July is going to end in strong note for Chennai. We may cross 200 mm for the month.
After a year Long hurdle..amb shankaran gets an opportunity ( a stepping stone) from the moderator.. I hope he will utilise this opportunity and he is elected unanimously as a CHIEF for keaadhar card operations committee
Sel,
Can you also post August and September forecast.
here it is
OMG palghar records 476mm in 12 hrs :O

Gotta spend atleast 1 SWM in Mumbai.. What a place.. It always pours there
There are more severe places which is much nearest to chn than Mumbai…
Yes.. There are many but i am talking about big metro-politan cities.. We have Mangalore which is one more beautiful place
Even Kolkata receives similar to Mumbai with mild variation but Mumbai don’t get regular rains like mangalore belt
Kolkatta is somewhat less in quantum Jeet but yes they have more rainy days than mumbai
mangalore ll be like trichy or madurai
mangalore is one gr8 place cant be compared to any other, mysore too preferred ofcourse with lower rains but cool temps
Good for eating bajji and staying home, but not for venturing out!
Vada pav
So many places in W Coast are better than Mumbai. Mumbai doesn’t even get a drop from November to May.
That’s why i have specifically mentioned SWM in my comment Kalai
Even swm period Mumbai will have long break periods without a drop…but w.Ghats is a best place
If you are staying at home it is fine. Otherwise it is hell.
I said this before. Incessant rains, Broken drains, Stopped trains. All combine to make your life miserable.

Any rains pics from Palghar? i googled it, but all i can get is Mumbai pics
Jon has already posted pics in this page pls check out.
Negative OLR (MJO) induced west coast rainfall. The blue line in pic depict the same.
Expected to continue for next 4-5 days. Mumbai likely to get battered for next 72 hours.
Partha can i get the key for this map…
This map is also there in Michael Ventrice website page. Check out the link.

Thanks 🙂
you have to pay annual subscription.
When it rains in Mumbai, then Shiva(Novak) will be active in blog.
When Shiva is active in blog, it rains in Mumbai.
Great Partnership.
Temp touched 35C
According to IMD-Mumbai, rainfall recorded in the 24 hours from July 20-21 (8.30am-8.30am) in Colaba was 15.8mm and in Santacruz 61mm. This is the most rainfall received in a span of 24 hours since the beginning to July this year.
Heavy rains lashes Mumbai. But 61mm isn’t heavy
I was expecting 150-200mm. With 61mm itself so many places are water logged. Can we attribute it to poor storm drains in Mumbai.
parts of mumbai has received heavier.. thane around 120 till now less than 12 hrs
anything less than 200 is normal for Mumbai. Media is over exaggerating again.
Now tv channels will make their headlines around this and project it as if the world has come to a stand still 🙂
Colaba is Mumbai’s CND!
We have to learn from mumbai imd
They are highlighting the imd figures both from santacruz or colaba
if santacruz gets higher rainfall than colaba, then imd ll come up with santacruz on that day
if colaba gets higher means , imd ll comes with colaba…
Same should be for nungambakkam and meenamabam,,sadly imd chennai showing trace eventhough meenambakkam got 3mm
where r they highlighting these?
Heavy rains hit suburban train services in Mumbai
In the Palghar district adjoining neighbouring Thane, schools were shut today due to heavy rains since last evening, officials said.
The Palghar-Boisar road was closed due to water on road near ST Workshop, Umroli and Saravli.
A total of 445 mm rainfall was recorded till 7 AM today in Palghar, according to officials at the district headquarters.
During the last 24 hours, Colaba in south Mumbai received 15.8 mm rainfall while Santacruz weather station recorded 61 mm downpour. “We are having good to very good clouding at the offshores and expect good rainfall in next 48 hours,” IMD Mumbai centre’s director V K Rajiv said.
http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/states/heavy-rains-hit-suburban-train-services-in-mumbai/article7447207.ece
looks like similar mambalam station
Lol ya.. hope they give some space for the train too. 🙂
Mumbai stations cannot be compared with any stations in Chennai, EVen during Diwali season Mambalam better off . For them everyday is Diwali
with so much rain around they would be usualy able to find ground water @ 10-20ft !!
power of silent lpa caused havoc in MP now maha
Weekly Nino 3 index at 2.3C. Only two El Ninos since 1950 have had monthly Nino 3 values >= 2.3C (’82-’83, ’97-’98).
– Philip Klotzbach @philklotzbach
I agree with Ehsan and Balaji’s comment below.
If it rains in Mumbai then it is a rain as per Media. They don’t care about other parts of the country. Even moderate rain in Mumbai will cover the headlines.
The electronic and print media gives least coverage for this part of India. The latest survey says – people are fed up with these media and they feel social media is far better today
see poor mumbai…tracks got flooded for 30-40mm itslef
Good afternoon friends . Expecting a good ts today for chennai
The 2015 El Niño continues to develop. Weakened (or reversed) trade winds have resulted in further warming over much of the tropical Pacific Ocean. All key ENSO ocean monitoring areas have been more than 1 °C above average for 10 successive weeks—two weeks longer than the record in 1997. The eastern tropical Pacific is now at or exceeding +2 °C. In the atmosphere, the past week has seen the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) drop to around −20, the lowest values of the event so far.

But expecting SOI to return neutral range in November or December similar to 1987 style though ONI in warm condition.
This holds good if Elnino warm tongue doesn’t extend southward in coming 2 months till Chile coast.
The Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) is currently neutral. A positive IOD event remains possible, with three of the five international models suggesting a positive IOD is likely during late winter to spring. A positive IOD is typically associated with reduced winter and spring rainfall over parts of southern and central Australia.

But by next week IOD will turn -ve due to MJO passage.
Now most of the modles expecting strong positive IOD in coming months. We may see sudden jump in IOD value in coming weeks.
Do you have SST-anomalies (crucial for generation of all indexes) link for the past 100 yes?
I am only worried how media will exaggerate it. They will find every non existing way to boost their TRPs
Depressions will be termed as super cyclones 🙂
Power of finance capitol

India lucky they didn’t play test series in bangladesh
Ehsan,
Just remember my words, these are all fixed by ICC.
Bang vs Ind and Bang vs SAF.
No..Bangladesh players r playing really well..
Don’t make me laugh
when you didnt laugh?
no they are playing good
Ind matches r not fixed thy r playing to their full potential since last aus tour
i saw 138/1 while i was taking lunch????
Yeah. They bore the batsmen with spin
we played and we almost won match was drawn due to rain. please see score
Illena Govinda Govinda Gooovindaaa dha aeerpoo:-)
Ehsan please dont compare india with SA . In september India are hosting SA for four test match series then we will see who is better
SAF and AUS are always better side comparing to India.
India will play well for a season, but not consistent enough in the history of indian cricket.
true partha particularly in tests.
4 match home series?
why don’t they play 2 home and 2 away? Cricket needs to revolutionise. Its boring some countries play well only at home due to designer pitches. Only Australia and SA will play wherever they go.
Nice idea
Actually This Is The First Time In Last 5 Years SA are In India
We want there 2 Times

and we have to agree they played good cricket.

severe rains lashing konkan coast!! local vortex seen developed near northern maha
During last month(June, 2015), the Mascarene High was not seen so strong, it was close to or less than its normal intensity. Only now, it is seen strengthening a while. whereas, the Australian High was pretty stronger than normal for the same time period . This is clearly evident from this pressure anomaly map of June,2015 …
Yes, ACC far in Australia will weaken the CEW of SWM. This is nice pictorial, even a layman can understand.
One can see the positive anomaly close to the Australian High , upto + 6 mb, whereas close to Mascarene High it is normal to below normal pressure
Gokul, Passage of Equatorial waves (MJO entered phase 2) does exhibiting any influence through pull effect?
Pull effect ? can u elaborate …the relationship ..
MJO’s entry at phase 2 (even +ve IOD) Strengthening the SWM dynamics at WEIO (though temporary) at equator might automatically reorienting MH near to Africa instead of Australia. Once MJO enters west-Pacific/dateline (phases 5-7/ even if IOD turns -ve), then SWM dynamics will weaken near WEIO, which might be looking like MH settling near Australia. Note: MH is powerful or MJO/IOD powerful? Or can both work independlty each other? Working together?
Nowadays, Imd aws temp is showing less compare to metsite..
Oru velai water service pani irupangalo..:)

The change in leadership in the BCCI sees the return of international cricket to Nagpur and Gwalior or Indore. The two host associations – Vidarbha Cricket Association and Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association – are controlled by Shashank Manohar and Jyotiraditya Scindia, respectively, who fell out with N Srinivasan, and consequently lost out on big matches for at least the last three years.
The BCCI announced on Sunday that Ahmedabad, Delhi, Nagpur and Bangalore will host the Tests against South Africa in October and November this year. The board also confirmed the venues for the ODI and T20 games on the tour, and three T20s against Sri Lanka in February 2016, before the World T20 which will be played in India.
Chennai, Kanpur, Indore/Gwalior, Rajkot and Mumbai will host the five ODIs against South Africa, while the three T20 internationals of the tour will be played in Kolkata, Mohali and Dharamsala.
Sri Lanka will travel to India for three T20 internationals – to be played in Visakhapatnam, Pune and Delhi – which will be played in February next year prior to the Asia Cup and the World Twenty20. The venues were finalised by the BCCI’s tour, programme and fixtures committee that met in Kolkata on Sunday.
Vijay,
If the ODI’s planned during NEM season, then Chennai match will be doubtful. This NEM expected to be strong.
