Welcome

Arrival of Monsoon



The much awaited South West Monsoon gaining strength this weekend... eventhough in this year the monsoon was little earlier to reach Kerala coast, the monsoon was dormant due to the formation of cyclone in the arabian sea (gonu). The weathermen indicated that the monsoon winds were carried away by the cyclone, and now monsoon struck with fury... Southern states like Kerala, AP, Karnataka and parts of Maharastra were affected... It rained heavily in Mumbai this weekend... ie more than 10% of annual rainfall received in last two days... obviously the Mumbai was flooded.. Various TV Channels blames the corporation for the deluge, which seems to be unfair... if there is rainfall @ of 2 cms per hour, then it is very difficult for the accumulated water to disperse immediately... as the drainage system cannot cope up with the excess drainage...



But at any count, the Indian Monsoon is a visual treat... we can call the Great Indian Monsoon... it is a treat to watch the movement of dark rain bearing clouds, filled with intermediate showers...

the freshness in the air,

the greenness in the land,

the transformation of the parched lands,

the singing of birds,

the chillness in the air,

the fresh feelings it brings,

the rejunuation, pleasantness it brings...

Truely Indian monsoon is a great phenomena, one could only experience it, and cannot be described in words.

welcoming the great Indian Monsoon.... the backbone of Indian economy... and life line of Indian People.... welcome- oh dear monsoon...!!!!
