The period October-December accounts for about 20 % of Kerala's annual total.<BR/><BR/>Northeast monsoon rains occur in spells of about 3 to 4 days duration. Spells exceeding 4 days are much less (20%). There are at times long spells of dry weather with little or no rain.Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076685280358127119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430743085868957237.post-11704462607360547222008-06-03T00:09:00.000+05:302008-06-03T00:09:00.000+05:30Hi We are looking to book a week in Kerala and a w...Hi We are looking to book a week in Kerala and a week in Goa in November / December.

Anything between 5% and 100% is classified as normal rainfall.Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076685280358127119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430743085868957237.post-76638811565174888762008-05-15T18:53:00.000+05:302008-05-15T18:53:00.000+05:30One more update today - monsoons are expected to s...One more update today - monsoons are expected to set in over Kerala on May 29, with a possible error of 4 days this way or that way. <BR/>http://www.imd.gov.in/section/nhac/dynamic/mon-prog.htmDeepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076685280358127119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2430743085868957237.post-72612195741860822262008-05-07T09:38:00.000+05:302008-05-07T09:38:00.000+05:30Update from the IMD's monsoon forecast for 2008 - ...Update from the IMD's monsoon forecast for 2008 - it is going to be a normal monsoon i.e. no scarcity of rain or excess rain.
