Moodubelle, 17 Jun 2012: After two days of dry spell, the sky opened on Sunday right from early hours of the day and it rained throughout with varying intensity reviving the hope of a normal monsoon. The temperature has drastically come down.
The fields that had been ploughed and those which are waiting to be ploughed were inundated with water logging giving a sense of min-flood. However, the river is yet to be overflowed. If the rains continue with the same intensity throughout the night of Sunday and Monday morning there is a possibility of the low lying areas along the Belle River being flooded.
Agricultural activities have already started with the tillers preparing the fields for the transplantation of the paddy saplings that are just getting ready.
With the monsoon arriving in time since the beginning of June, the nature is full of greenery with tender grass sprouting in the barren land and trees and plants wearing a green look. Overall weather is quite pleasant and the rural scene is awesome with full of greenery.

This is awesome...What a real bliss. Such a fabulous rainy atmosphere took me to the place where I spent my childhood days. It's been a very long time being away from all these natural settings, continues rain, floods, rain soaked wet cloths after returning back from the school and so on. I truly remembered the good old days in Moodubelle Dr. Eugene. | |

A good monsoon ensures a better future for our economy. May our Gulf based NRI visit, spend money in beautiful natural environs and help beat recession. | |

These farmers are helping us to have a green look, get the grains and fresh organic vegetables...which are tasty and healthy. They also help us in ground water replenishment by holding water in the fields. This kind of life is missing in urban areas....after few years to green in urban areas..we may have to paint roads and concrete in green. Nice Photographs Dr Eugene ...Thanks | |

Dear Dr. Eugene, Thanks for latest update on rain in Belle and around. I have not seen the rain for several years being in the gulf but these pictures gives me the sense belong to my mother land. I wish I was there to enjoy this beautiful weather but your report and pictures gives me great feelings and I am sure many of us in the Gulf hardly get chance to enjoy good rains. Thanks a lot and please update more and if possible with a video clip next time. |
