Rainfall stats, Darjeeling district : Aug2012

The monsoons have been unusually mild this year and Aug2012 was another month of deficient rainfall in this region (along with May/Jun2012).
What is also strange is that thus far, there has been no major weather activity in the Bay of Bengal and as such we have not observed any low pressure/depressions or cyclones in the bay during this entire season.

No major landslides took place in the Darjeeling - Sikkim Himalaya in Aug2012
