@MrigDixit For centuries, winds have played a crucial role in almost all voyages navigating long distances through rough seas. One such seasonal wind that sailors historically used to reach India was the #Monsoon.
@MrigDixit As it implies from its likely origin from the Arabic word Mawsim, the monsoon is nothing but a periodic seasonal wind. It is the dominant feature of India’s climate, which brings around 80% of the total precipitation across the country.

A new study from the University of Kansas has offered some crucial insight into the mechanisms behind the world's most powerful monsoon systems: Indian summer monsoon or the southwest monsoon.

@iitbombay "#CycloneAmphan pulled the monsoon trough over Andaman islands in mid-May, and #CycloneNisarga later pulled the monsoon trough onto the mainland. These cyclones unusually led to the 2020 #monsoon season arriving over India right on time.": Raghu Murtugudde on #LetsTalkWeather
@iitbombay "This year, #MumbaiRains have been mostly during evenings & nights. This may have led many Mumbaikars to think the city hasn’t received a lot of rainfall this season, but statistics indicate otherwise.": @weathercast's @akshaydeoras on #LetsTalkWeather
Engineering a City #thread
Having spent my entire childhood in #Kochi (#Cochin ), it feels criminal to not know the story of how the city came to be the #metropolis it is today. Putting together a thread to trace the journey of the city which has been so endearingly mine (1)

The story of Cochin is not just about how an engineering marvel can change social fabric, but also of many tenets of #British #Colonialism in India which is often taken for granted, passed off lazily as exploitation, missing nuance (2)

Dangers of the sea: with impending #Monsoons, fishing communities across #India tie up their boats. All along the #Indian #coastline, #boats of different dimensions and #colours, await the #dark #clouds to wreck havoc on their #home - the #sea
The #rainyseason recharges #water & #human bodies, but the #fishingcommunities have no #income.They would have had to save enough to tide them through. They spend this time with their families,repairing boats,fishing nets& specialise in #hunting small #crustacean close to #shore
No #freshcatch is served in #restaurants on #coastline but no one’s complaining as we care for our fishing communities&this is rare opportunity for expressing that concern.in #Monsoon we stand together,waiting quietly for the storms,the rains - nature’s fury& #beauty
