Abstract

Fluctuations in the intensity and spatial distribution of southwest monsoon rainfall over India are well known. Spurt in the rainfall activity over India leading to strong monsoon and cessation in the rail1fall activity leading to break/weak monsoon are typically associated with different synoptic situations. In these two typical situations, the variations of thermodynamic parameters like dry bulb temperature; dew point temperature, potential temperature, equivalent potential temperature and saturated moist-static energy are studied and their possible use in forecasting are highlighted.
