OK try this map:
http://www.mapsofindia.com/maps/india/southwestmonsoon.htm
which shows that on June 1 South West monsoon Bay of Bengal branch
simultaneously enter Kerala in the South and Imphal in NE India and then moves
northwest wards reaching Delhi bu July 1.

You can trust me on this one -- the weblink you sent me is really pathetic and

**** Really? Awright! You are the expert, I am just a kharkhowa.
So why don't you tell us what your conclusion is:
Do you UMesh, a shining graduate of climatology/meteorology of Wiki U,
therefore stand
behind the notion , that those little tankers carrying monsoon
moisture to Assam
and the contiguous areas , finding no one in the receiving rooms,
double back on their
sales route down the Brahmaputra valley on to the Gangetic plains
inhabited by
poor Indians unable to pay for merchandise, go on to Delhi and
Rajasthan to deliver their
loads a month later?
Is that what you learned?
I know I won't get an answer to the question, but since you can't see what
stared you on your face; the website I sent a link for, showed the monsoon
wind patterns that generate from the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian sea. It
also showed the high and low pressure points in the south Asian region that
usually cause the monsoon wind patterns that are considered NORMAL.
The Wiki account , more than likely was written by a desi non-scientist. You,
read it literally, like fundamentalists reads their scriptures.
The wind patterns that cause what cause rains in NE and the West ands
North Indian regions are different, even though they overlap.
And the URL of the Indian meteorological dept. that you sent triumphantly,
does not tell anyone what the monsoon wind patterns are . It merely tells us
when monsoon arrives in different parts of India.
Some expert you are!
Bay of Bengal Monsoon comes to NE first -drops a lot of rain and drags over
the Indo-gangetic plain slowly --raeching Thar desert area (westernmost last --
having no moisture left -- so dry deserts-- Thats how all Indian media reports
.
Having grown in the said desert it is common knowledge how lucky NE India is
to be first to receive the clouds fresh from the sea.
Still you might like to see the detailed map of the "Advance of Southwest
Monsoon 2007" - if you scroll halfway down the webpage of

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsoon
"The Bay of Bengal Branch of SW Monsoon flows over the Bay of Bengal heading
towards North-Eastern India and Bengal, picking up more moisture from the Bay
of Bengal. Its hits the Eastern Himalaya and provides a huge amount of rain to
the regions of North-East India, Bangladesh and West Bengal. Cherrapunji,
situated on the southern slopes of the Eastern Himalaya in Shillong, India is
one of the wettest places on Earth. After striking the Eastern Himalaya it
turns towards the West, travels over the Indo-Gangetic Plain, at a rate of
roughly 1-2 weeks per state[citation needed], pouring raining all along its
way"
Satisfied?? Or do you accuse me of cooking up the data here at wiki also?

I thought the insanity here was spewed by someone else who, being clueless
about simple high-school geography , unaware of the direction of the main
monsoons that bring rains to the NE, went on to assert:

What is this? Some new desi climatology? That the southwest monsoons, not
being able to unload its moisture in the NE, swerves back to the west in a
sudden acute angle move and go drop its load in Rajasthan?
For your info, the monsoons that bring rains to Assam, is different from the
one that brings rains to the Western Ghats or to Rajasthan or to Delhi and
farther up. It is not the one that does a left-right-left-right and about -turn
from Assam. Westrern/northwestern Indian monsoons don't happen until later June
and early July, whereas the NE area monsoons arrive almost a month earlier.
No, it is not because it takes that much time to take an about turn from Assam
and marching thru the Gangetic plains arrives in Rajasthan a month later.

I expected something more sane from you. You are debating about a non issue -
does it matter whether the wind come from St Louis , Missouri (your house) to
reach Assam. The moot point is Assam has very less flood time - only a
week!!!!!! Which is blown out of proportion by those who sy if flood is not
tacled Assam cannot develop.
Any pearls of wisdom from a supporter of ULFA like yourself. May I
remind you ULFA is branded a terrorist organization by USA in 2005.
How very patriotic of you!!!

Does Umesh the renowned, Harvard trained climatologist know what the direction
of the monsoon winds that bring rains to Assam and the contiguous region are?
Can he explain how it turns towards the west all of a sudden? It would be very
interesting to learn.
But something tells me we will be deprived of that bit of Rajasthani science.

Hi,
While discussing with Ahsan-da Aziz the maker of the film
http://www.sonam.net.tc/
I learnt many things which might surprise some .
For one despite having ample water Assam imports fish from South India -
strange trade. The eggs are hatched in Assam , roe (young little fish) are
raised in Assam's fish farm - then they are sent to Andhra Pradesh where they
grwo and then brought all the way back to be sold in Guwahati's fish markets (
a regular place where ULFA places the bombs and kills civilians and also at the
vegetable market).
About floods I am told it is a week long activity in Assam - only one week!!
or ten days - and that due to global warming the moisture is transported to
deserts of Rajasthan which are seeing unheard of floods in areas which never
received any rains at all. Cherapoonji - world's wettest place has seen no
rains since all that rainwater has shifted onwards to drop on Mumbai causing
massive unheard of floods.
Those with slightest knowledge of monsoon rains in India would know that warm
moisture laden winds flow inwards towards Assam and rest of NE India in Spring
onwards and when they reach Himalayas they rise higher and cool down to form
rain. Now it doesn't cool down enough so no rain for NE India for past 2 years.
(which have seen ground water disappear over the years due to excessive
population and irrigation) thus I am sure thse guys are not complaing about
unheard of floods.
