The Rain maker has reached
& shall begin the trialTommorrow as decided

There is a belief that the rain deficiency of the monsoons(june sept) gets compensated
by the lean seasons of oct-nov-dec ) but this has not happened during the current year,
In the month of january 2016 Rain deficiency in champawat was strikingly 93%

If there is a heavy downpour to the extent of 50 mm or more during the trial period we can then
assume that the trial was successful,
the met deptt does not provide monthly forecast to judge,
unfortunately the sky is cloudy today (31.01.2016) as at 2.00pm,we shall have to wait & watch.
but going by the forecast for tommorrow we anticipate a clear sky for the trial to begin

Place: champawat
It has rained & continues ,but the enthusiasm is bit
Missing (1) why so ? ,because it has rained in other places as well,so the general opinion as perceived is that it was a natural phenomena.that is how the science of comparison works,had it rained only at champawat people would have gladly rejoiced ,they forget that it was dry all over till a week ago

The Rainfall displayed on the IMD Dehradun website shows only 4 mm which is unbelievable,we are reconfirming from the district auth.A Rain gauge is installed at the district head Quarters.There is no news in the media ,newspaper because it had rained all over the Region,the fact of rain at champawat is ignored considering the wider region it had spread.
There was a complete blackout at 11 pm night ,even the battery of the invertor got discharged.Power restored at 10 am & the machine started operation
Lets see what happens in the days to come
