The month of September has been good enough for the city of Bengaluru. So much so that the city has witnessed at least four spells of heavy rains. Not only this, the city has also recorded light to moderate rains on various occasions.
Heavy rains of over 65 mm were also recorded in Bengaluru on two separate occasions, on September 8 and 9. However, the last 48 hours have been dry for the capital city of Karnataka. Both the observatories including the city as well as the airport have been dry for the capital city.

The reason for the reduction in these rains is that a trough was passing through South Interior Karnataka which was responsible for giving heavy rains two days ago, has now shifted towards West Coast over Southeast Arabian sea resulting in almost dry weather conditions.

Now, heavy rains will not be seen in Bengaluru for at least another two to three days. However, the possibility of scattered light rains over some parts due to localized activity.
So far, in just about 10 days of September, Bengaluru has been able to record a whopping 344 mm of rainfall against its monthly mean of 212.8 mm. With 18 days still left in the month of September, it seems like Bengaluru will easily be able to break the decade old record of highest monthly rains.
