Heavy rain, gusty winds pummel Koramangala

BENGALURU: Several parts of the city were lashed by heavy rain and gusty winds - the Karnataka State Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) recording winds raging at 18 to 20kmph at Begur and Lalbagh around 4pm.

Very high rainfall in localities of southeast Bengaluru such as Koramangala (68mm) and Mahadevapura (62mm) disrupted normal life. One of the arterial roads in Koramangala, 80 feet Road was cut off for approximately two-and-a-half hours, blocked by a tree that brought down an electric pole along with it. Power outage in the area only added to the residents' woes.

K Nagaraj, a resident of Koramangala 6th Block, said, "It's an unfortunate day. Bescom, and personnel from other corporations are working in different areas. The trouble is that we are not receiving any response on the Bescom helpline (1912). The residents were forced to contact executive engineers and other officials working at the spot. The process would have been far smoother if the helpline was functioning."

Nagaraj said that the areas near the Subramanya temple and Club Road had been affected badly.

Monsoon may hit Karnataka by May 29, says KSNDMC


BENGALURU: In some cheer for the drought-hit state that has been looking skywards for rains, monsoon is likely to hit early this year. If the forecast by Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC) is anything to go by, monsoon will hit the state by May 29.
According to India Meteorological Department (IMD) officials, South West monsoon normally hits Kerala on June 1, and it takes another four to five days to reach interiors of Karnataka.
“But this time, early monsoon arrival is possible. Going by the cloud formation, wind flow and other symptoms, we believe monsoon will hit Karnataka by May 29,” said KSNDMC director Srinivas Reddy.
Also, unlike in 2016 when the state received 26 per cent deficit rainfall, good monsoon is in store this year.
“Between January 1 and May 9 this year, the state received 58 mm rainfall as against 63 mm normal. Pre-monsoon showers are not deficit, which is a good sign,” Reddy added.
While there has been 10 per cent excess rainfall in South Interior Karnataka this pre-monsoon, Malnad region received normal rainfall.
“Heavy pre-monsoon showers for three days from May 15 are expected to compensate for the rain deficit in North interior as well as coastal Karnataka,” Reddy said.
This year, IMD has predicted 95 per cent rain across the country, which is 5 per cent less than normal during monsoon.
“In Karnataka, we are anticipating either normal or close to normal rainfall. It will definitely  be better than previous years,” he added.
“In Karnataka, average rainfall of 875 mm between June 1 and October 1 is said to be normal. Even if it rains a little less as per the IMD prediction, uniform distribution throughout the monsoon will ensure that the farmers are not affected. Farmers can look to produce crops like red gram, paddy, maize, jowar, sunflower, groundnut and others,” said Prof M B Rajegowda, an agrometeorologist at the University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS).
