Rainfall data of Mar 2022 of some towns in the Darjeeling- Sikkim Himalaya

 As has been the noticeable trend, rainfall was severely deficient in Darjeeling and Kalimpong districts whereas all of Sikkim had much better rain in Mar2022

Forecasts for two depressions maturing into cyclonic storms in the Bay in Mar2022 proved erroneous and the storms remained as depressions.

With deficient rain our region remained very dry resulting in a number of forest and other fires.
