INDIA METEOROLOGICAL DEPARTMENT (MINISTRY OF EARTH SCIENCES) SOUTHWEST MONSOON-4 END OF SEASON REPORT For the state of UTTAR PRADESH HIGHLIGHTS For the country as a whole, the rainfall for the season (June-tember) was 88% of its long period average (LPA). However, for the North West India this figure came out to 79% and 53% of its LPA for the Uttar Pradesh. Seasonal rainfall was 58% of its LPA over East Uttar Prasad and 44% of its LPA over West Uttar Pradesh. Out of the total 7 districts of Uttar Pradesh district constituting % of the total area of the State received excess season rainfall, districts constituting 3% of the total area of the State received normal season rainfall, 4 districts constituting 59% of the total area of the State received deficient season rainfall and 6 districtss constituting 37% of the total area of the State received scanty rainfall. Monthly rainfall over the state Uttar Pradesh a whole was 4% of LPA in June, 7% of LPA in y, 39% of LPA in August and 56% of LPA in tember. Monsoon current advanced over the Andaman Sea days earlier than its normal date of th May. However, it set in over Kerala on 6th June, 5 days later than its normal date of st June. It entered in East Uttar Pradesh on 7 th June, days later than its normal dates of 5 th June and covered whole Uttar Pradesh 4 days later i.e. on 4 th y. The southwest monsoon currents covered the entire country by 7th y, days later than its normal date of 5th y. Withdrawal of monsoon from West Uttar Pradesh commenced on 7 th tember against its normal date of 5 th tember and it completely withdrew from the state on 8 th October. During the season, Cyclonic Storm (Nanauk), monsoon depressions and monsoon low pressuree areas were formed as against the normal of 6 monsoon depressions and 6 monsoon low pressure areas per season. The forecast for monsoon onset over Kerala for this year was correct, whichh is the tenth consecutive correct forecast for this event since issuing of forecast for the event was started in 5. Forecast Probability for below normal monsoon was 7% for North West India as per the operational long range forecasts for the southwest monsoon 4 forecast update issued in August 4. The forecasts for the monthly rainfall (for the months y and August) and that for the second half of the monsoon season over the North West India as a whole remained within the forecast limits.
. ONSET OF SOUTHWEST MONSOON 4 During South West Monsoon Season 4, from 7th- 8th May, an easterly wave trough embedded in the northern hemispheric equatorial convergence zone developed into a cyclonic circulation over south Andaman Sea and neighborhood. Associated with this, low level cross equatorial monsoon flow strengthened over the region resulting in the advance of southwest monsoon over most parts of Andaman Sea and some parts of southeast Bay of Bengal on 8th May and remaining parts of Andaman Sea, some more parts of southeast Bay of Bengal and some parts of southwest and east central Bay of Bengal on 9th. Thus the southwest monsoon current reached over south Andaman Sea days before normal date of th May. However, the southwest monsoon set in over Kerala on 6th June, 5 days later than its normal date of st June. Same day, monsoon also advanced into most parts of south Arabian Sea, some parts of Tamil Nadu, most parts of southwest Bay of Bengal and some parts of west central Bay of Bengal. Thereafter, though not rapid, it consistently advanced and by 8th June, it covered central Arabian Sea, some parts of north Arabian Sea, south Gujarat, entire Konkan & Goa, some parts of south peninsula, Odisha, Jharkhand and Bihar, entire northeastern states and most parts of Gangetic West Bengal. The Arabian Sea branch of the monsoon current was aided by the formation of a Cyclonic Storm (Nanauk) over the Arabian Sea. The eastward propagation of Madden ian Oscillation (MJO) over maritime continent led to the development of convection over north Bay of Bengal and the subsequent formation of season s first low pressure area over coastal areas of Bangladesh and neighborhood on 9th June. This aided the advance of Bay of Bengal branch of the southwest monsoon over northeastern states. Subsequently it further advanced into most parts of south peninsula, east and adjoining parts of central India by th June. During the last week of June, the weakening of monsoon activity caused the re-appearance of the heat wave conditions over eastern parts of peninsular India. After a hiatus of days, monsoon started reviving. Subsequently, a favourable interaction of the southwest monsoon current with the mid-latitude westerlies aided the advance of southwest monsoon into the western Himalayan region and adjoining plains of northwest India. It advanced into entire Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir, some more parts of Uttar Pradesh and some parts of Haryana (including Chandigarh) and Punjab on st y. During the first week of y, the presence of anticyclone over the peninsular region resulted in subdued rainfall activity over parts of north, central and peninsular region. But the formation of a low pressure area over north Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal areas of Bangladesh and Gangetic West Bengal (during st 7th y) and a cyclonic circulation over west Uttar Pradesh and neighborhood (during 3rd - 6th y) caused further advance of the monsoon into some more parts of Uttar Pradesh, remaining parts of Haryana (including Delhi) and Punjab and some parts of north Rajasthan on 3rd y and subsequently into most parts of Vidarbha, remaining parts of east Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh, some parts of west Madhya Pradesh and some more parts of northeast Rajasthan on 7th. Subsequent to the formation and west northwestwards movement of a low pressure area (during th- 6th y), an off shore trough at mean sea level extending from Gujarat coast to Kerala coast (th-6th y) and the cyclonic circulation extending between 3. & 5.8 kms a.s.l. over northeast Arabian Sea during (4th-6th y) during the second week, the monsoon activity revived gradually over central India and west coast thereby causing further advance of southwest monsoon over remaining parts of central India and most parts of northwest India on 6th and remaining parts of north Arabian Sea, Saurashtra & Kutch, Gujarat Region and west Rajasthan and thus the entire country on 7th y 4.Fig. shows the isochrones of advance of monsoon 4.
. CHIEF SYNOPTIC FEATURES: Fig.: Isochrones of advance of Monsoon 4 Strong cross equatorial flow prevailed during y and August. The presence of ridge and formation of Cyclonic Storm over Arabian Sea prevented the cross equatorial flow to actually reach the west coast of peninsular India during first half of June. It was weak during later part of the tember as well. The axis of monsoon trough mostly remained normal/south of its normal position during y and first half of tember. It extended up to mid troposphere levels without its characteristic tilt. It mostly remained North of its normal position /close to foot hills of Himalayas during August. The seasonal heat low was less demarcated since second half of August except for first half of tember, when it became noticeable. Thereafter, it became less apparent and subsequently, the axis of monsoon trough also weakened thereby becoming less delineated since nd tember. With the shifting of monsoon trough to the foot hills of Himalayas during the month of August, the circulation features and rainfall pattern resembled typical break like situation during 5th st August. During the season, 3 low pressure systems formed. These included low pressure areas, one cyclonic storm (CS), a land depression and a deep depression. Tracks of the depressions and the CS are given in Fig.. Out of the low pressure areas formed during the season (against the season normal of 6), 8 (3 of them well marked) formed over the Bay of Bengal and two (as well marked) over the Arabian Sea. The monthly break up is in June, 3 in y, 3 in August and 3 in tember.
During the month of June, one CS and one low pressure area formed. The CS Nanauk (9th 4th June) which formed over East Arabian Sea at the leading edge of the monsoon current aided the further advance of Arabian branch up to South Gujarat coast. Its remnant vortex drifting northeastwards towards Gujarat resulted in extremely heavy rainfall over Saurashtra & Kutch on 6th June. The first low pressure area (9th nd June) formed over coastal areas of Bangladesh and neighborhood under the influence of a cyclonic circulation over northwest Bay of Bengal and neighborhood. It increased the rainfall activity over the region and thus led to the further advance of southwest monsoon over sub-divisions in the east. The formation of second low pressure area (st -7th y) over north Bay of Bengal and adjoining areas and its more north-northwesterly movement kept the monsoon activity over the eastern parts only. Therefore the rainfall activity all over India during the period remained subdued. With the formation of the land depression (st 3rd y) over northeastern parts of Odisha and adjoining areas of Genetic West Bengal and thereafter its movement as a low pressure area in westward direction along with the other two low pressure areas (th-8th y & 7th -3st y) over northwest Bay of Bengal, revived the monsoon activity over central and peninsular India during the period. First week of August witnessed the formation of a deep depression (3rd -6th Aug.) over coastal areas of west Bengal and neighborhood which spurred the vigorous monsoon conditions over the Indo- Genetic plains whereas its remnant cyclonic circulation enhanced the rainfall activity over parts of northwest India. The low pressure area (9th -th Aug.) formed over north Bay of Bengal and its northwestwards movement and dissipation, led the monsoon trough to shift towards the foot hills of the Himalayas on 3th Aug. With the formation of well marked low pressure areas (3rd -4th Aug.) & (7th Aug 6th t), one each over the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal, the rainfall activity over major parts of peninsular India enhanced during the last week of August. Monsoon activity in general remained weak outside this areas and northeastern parts of the country, which received rainfall associated with the North-South trough in the lower and mid tropospheric westerlies. The formation of the well marked low pressure area over the Bay of Bengal and its West-North West wards movement across the central parts of India along with the formation of the low pressure area (nd -4th t.) over Saurashtra & Kutch and adjoining northeast Arabian Sea revived the rainfall activity over central and North West India. The above well marked low pressure area took a more North ward course from 4th t and thereafter interacting with the trough in the mid-latitude Westerlies in the lower tropospheric levels, caused heavy to very heavy rainfall resulting severe floods in Jammu & Kashmir during first week of tember. The formation and movement of the third well marked low pressure area (5th 9th t) over North Bay of Bengal off West Bengal Bangladesh coasts helped the monsoon trough to shift southwards of its normal position and thus led to vigorous monsoon activity over North, East central and adjoining peninsular India. In the latter half of tember, a low pressure area (6th -4th t.) formed over North West Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal areas of Odisha and West central Bay of Bengal. Its North ward movement increased the rainfall activity over eastern parts only.
In context of weak monsoon activity over Uttar Pradesh was due to movement of most of the Lows and Depressions over through the southernmost part of Uttar Pradesh and position of monsoon trough south to its normal position. It was due to position of Anti-cyclone (Tibetan High) at hpa level that was seen southwest to its normal position and was seen over the northeast part of Uttar Pradesh and adjoining areas most of the time at the same standard isobaric level. Fig. shows the track of monsoon depressions form during Monsoon 4. Fig.: Track of monsoon depression during Monsoon Season 4 3. WITHDRAWAL OF SOUTHWEST MONSOON: The weather over the western parts of Rajasthan remained mainly dry from 7th t. A change in the lower tropospheric circulation pattern over the region from cyclonic to anti cyclonic during 6th - 7th t also made conditions favorable for the withdrawal of southwest monsoon from the region. Subsequently, withdrawal of monsoon from northwestern most parts of the country commenced on 3rd t. It withdrew from some parts of west Rajasthan and Kutch on 3rd t. and from some parts of Punjab, Haryana and Gujarat Region, some more parts of Kutch area and remaining parts of west Rajasthan on 6th. On 8th t., it further withdrew from remaining parts of Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh & Delhi and east Rajasthan; some parts of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, east Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Saurashtra; most parts of west Uttar Pradesh and some more parts of Gujarat Region, Kutch and north Arabian Sea. As on 3th
tember, the withdrawal line passed through Jammu, Una, Bareilly, Kanpur, Nowgong, Ujjain, Vadodara, Porbandar, Lat. N/ Long. 65 E and Lat. N / Long. 6 E. On 5 th October monsoon completely withdrew from Uttar Pradesh. Fig.3 shows the isochrones of withdrawal of Monsoon 4.. Fig.3: Isochrones of withdrawal of Monsoon 4 4.
