 I did. It showed the DATES of monsoon's onset in various parts of India.




Did this show the monsoon wind directions that would have validated 
your expert opinion on how the SW monsoons  visiting Assam  and the 
NE doubles back , unable to unload its moisture where intended; over 
to the Gangetic plains and on to finally unload it in Rajasthan and 
Delhi; like you

learned from your long studies at the world renowned Wiki U ?


Do you even know the basic mechanism of how these monsoon winds carry 
water and why or where they unload them?  Do you know how the 
Western Ghats or the Aravalli ranges affect the monsoon rain patterns 
in Western and North Western India , that an ordinary high school kid 
ought to know  like WE did about the Himalayas, the Garo and Khasi 
Hills and so forth?






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.


* Those are not monsoon wind patterns for crying out loud!  They 
are date of arrival graphs.

Do you even read maps, graphs etc.? Sheeesh!!

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.

read this in Indian textbooks and learnt from my father who has an interest in 
geography and has travelled all over the Himalays - NE portion to Western 
Himalayas .  Do not ask me to go there and prove it all - neither can you- we 
say what we have read-- maybe what you read was taught only at IITs .

 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?

  Where do you fancy yourself in? Those who have the slightest knowledge of 
monsoons in India or the clueless  bunch who fancy themselves the 'know-it-all' 
?

 Since you know everything you might look again at the subject header and tell 
us a few points about its main contents?
 You have a habit of going at a tangent esp when your pet issue of terrorist 
ULFA is challenged.

  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:
  
 Those with slightest knowledge of monsoon rains in India would know- The 
 winds continue westwards and causing floods in usually desert areas .
  
 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.

 C-da,
 
 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!!!
