ABSTRACT:
A significant conclusion of the present analysis of May 2010 weather at Visakhapatnam is that the warm weather happens when the dust accumulation is more and there would be no wind whenever the weather is loaded with water vapour. Alternative phenomenon of warm and windy cold weather of Visakhapatnam needs much more weather pattern studies and its not just that sea temperature profile is the main culprit. 85% relative humidity does keeps the people from sweating and in spite that the weather is cool. The author has some ingenious ideas of controlled weather in Visakhapatnam city.

30th April 2010:
Following 30th April 2010 rain thunder in Andhra Pradesh, the Tuesday outburst of Ash ejections of from The Iceland's Eyjafjallajokull volcano on the 4th May 2010, engulfing Ireland, North Ireland and Scotland there were heavy rains in Andhra Pradesh in about eight districts. Kadappha, Kurnool, Chitoor, Nellore, Prakasam, Guntur, East Godavari, Tirupati had the brunt of it causing damage to several crops. Thunderbolts struck at Kurnool killing 4 people, in Tirupathi that killed two people and in Nugur one person died.
On 5th May 2010 there was sudden outburst of rain in the coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh with cumulonimbus dark and thick clouds, at Srikalulum, Bapatla, Guntur, and Vizianagaram districts with hailstones and thunders. Why that Visakhapatnam is didn’t receive heavy rain but only dramatic changes of weather pattern are not quite clear or easily explainable. It went with scorching morning brilliant red, saffron and yellowish orange sky, which soon by 2:00PM turned into a huge mass of cumulonimbus cloud cover dropping the temperatures by 4 to 5 degrees. In the morning it was 2 to 3 degrees more than the normal temperature. Within an half an hour of evening 4:00PM there were heavy gales that raised dust and haze making visibility and movement on the roads very hazardous. By 4:30PM the sun shown again with the intense warmth of summer.
HYDERABAD/VIZAG:
In the wake of a powerful earthquake in Indonesia which triggered fears of tsunami, the nine coastal districts were put on high alert. The district administrations were on complete guard and fishermen were told not to venture into sea.
Though the authorities did not issue any tsunami warnings, precautionary measures were taken by issuing alert warnings following orders from the state government. In Visakhapatnam and other port cities, visitors and tourists were told to stay away from the beaches. Control rooms were opened in Vizag, Machilipatnam, Rajahmundry and other coastal towns. Sources said since AP has a coastline of 974 kms -- the longest in the country -- the officials didn't want to take any chances. The East Godavari administration put 13 mandals on high alert and shifted people living in low-lying areas to safer places. In Narsapur in West Godavari and Singarayakonda in Nellore district, the sea waters entered the coast 100 metres inside. "From Srikakulam in north to Nellore in the south, all the fishermen villages were issued warnings and help lines set up for emergency," a senior official said. Ramakrishna beach in Vizag which usually is chocke blocked with enormous number of visitors, during the weekends looked like a curfew zone with the tourists and locals staying away after the authorities issued the warnings. Later in the evening, people started reaching the beach.
The tsunami had claimed 105 lives in coastal Andhra, especially in south coastal districts in 2005. Meanwhile, the Centre has announced that there's no tsunami threat to the mainland and shores.A tsunami warning was issued but was later lifted after no major waves materialized. The quake was recorded at 12.59 pm (12.29 pm IST) with the epicenter 66 km south-west of Meulaboh in West Aceh district, according to the Meteorology, Geophysics and Climatology Agency. A blackout was reported in North Aceh regency and Meulaboh — the closest town with the quake’s epicenter — where a telephone line was also cut off, local media reported A magnitude 7.4 earthquake hit the coast of Indonesia on Sunday, at a depth of 18 miles, according to local meteorologists. The earthquake near the Aceh territory on the the island of Sumatra triggered a tsunami warning, which was withdrawn within an hour after sea-level readings found the tsunami had not been generated. The U.S. Geological Survey, which monitors global seismic activity, estimated the quake's magnitude at 7.4 and said it had a depth of 61.4 kilometers beneath the seafloor. The quake's epicenter was located some 220 km south-southeast of Banda Aceh, the capital of Aceh Province, where was felt. It was also felt in neighboring North Sumatra Province. Indonesia's Meteorological, Geological and Climatology Agency put the quake's magnitude at 7.2. It said after lifting the tsunami warning that a small tsunami of only 20 centimeters was generated. The quake caused panic among local residents in Aceh, with local media reporting that people in several regencies of the province fled their houses following the temblor. A blackout was reported in North Aceh Regency. Indonesia, with more than 17,000 islands, is prone to earthquakes, as it sits on the so-called Pacific Ring of Fire.
The Noepakot and Thorvaldseyri farms are dwarfed by a plume of ash rising from a volcano erupting under the Eyjafjallajokull glacier, as seen from Hvolsvollur, Iceland, Wednesday, May 5, 2010.
The ash, stretching up from the surface to about 6,000 meters, has forced the closure of a number of airports in northern Italy. The Italian civil aviation authorities announced there would be no flying over a large part of the north of the country most of Sunday due to the ash cloud. Until the volcano in southern Iceland stops its emissions, the future course of Europe's ash crisis will depend heavily on the prevailing winds. The eruption of the glacier-capped volcano has shown no signs of stopping since it began belching ash April 13. The five-day closure of European airspace last month due to the ash cloud forced the cancellation of more than 100,000 flights.

Sunday May 16th, 2010
Entire week 8th to 15th may 2010 warm sun in AP. The phenomenal day the Sunday May 16th, 2010 seems to have spurred unknown events. The afternoon of that day the Ice land’s volcano has puffed out again brownish smoke to heights of 3k to 7k meters vertical and the aircraft flying over Europe and Scandinavian countries etc have collected the data on the density of the particulate matter. England, Netherlands and Germany country scientists are analyzing this data on ejected smoke densities.
There were thunderbolt deaths in the Andhra Pradesh in the afternoon of that fateful day in Mahaboobnagar, Aclasspuram fields and in Kurnool maddikerra village. But gales destroyed houses in erigiri region of kothalam mandalam. Adilabad, chittoor, Medak, Prakasam, Srikakulum, Visakha, EGD, Rangareddi, Kurnool, Kadappah, Nellore, Anathpuram the heatwave killed 56 people. But Hyderabad had a very heavy rain uprooting trees and electric poles and destroyed weak construction works in the evening of the Sunday.
The day is a festival day for Indians known as the Akshayya truthiya when sowing of seeds of vegetable beerakayulu and purchase of gold on a large scale has been made.
The weather following, the week of Laila cyclone during 17th to 22nd May 2010, has again became very warm reminding of the 11day Rohini Katthera with recorded on the 25th May 2010, maximum temperature of 47.2 at Ramgudam, Nizamabad 47, Hyderabad 44, Tirupati 42.6, Machillipatam 42.3, Vijayawada 42, Kavali 41.6, Nellore & Ongole 41.2, Kurnool 40.1, Narsapuram 39 with high relative humidity. The people in Visakhapatnam but found the 22nd and 23rd mornings of extreme chilly weather and wore protective clothing and as well used the bed sheets to cover in the wee hours.
PVSSharma astrologically predicted nearly fifteen days in advance that there would be rains on the 18-19th May 2010 and I have not believed it, astrological based reading of the events to occur. His next prediction is for 26th and 27th May 2010 for heavy rains to occur didn’t materialise but there was rain on the 29th early morning.
The kothapalli worst affected by the two one major and the other micro storms of the dates 16th to 2oth May 2010 and 29th May 2010 morning two hours (4 to 7AM) respectively with the 10 meters inflow of the sea with change of the colour of the sea water. People are very sceptical about weather phenomenon since the turbulent waters of the Bay of Bengal has sustained last fortnight or so and even the present author noticed that on the 27th evening there was an unusual turbulent slashing of waves at Vizag coast with peculiar noisy slashing of the shore. It sustained throughout the night. And surprisingly Kotthagudem recorded on Saturday 29th May 2010, the temperature of 49.32 deg C and a formation of a low-pressure area in the Arabian Sea of the west coast. Only Visakhapatnam recorded 33.2 deg C while all other cities in AP were reeling under above 40deg C temperature.
On 29th May 2010, early morning there was sudden outburst of turbulent cyclone heavy rain from 4:30 AM to 7:00AM that was very peculiar in the sense, it exhibited whirling winds, rain and gales at certain localities like Arilova etc cutting of High tension wires and because of it the entire city of Visakhapatnam suffered total disruption of electric supply till the evening 6:30PM.
Below image shows the dust cloud over the morning of 31st May 2010 sky of Maharanipeta, Narasimha Ashram, Visakhaptnam that justifies a significant finding made by the author on the weather pattern.
CONCLUSIONS:
A significant conclusion of the present analysis of May 2010 weather at Visakhapatnam is that the warm weather happens when the dust accumulation is more and there would be no wind whenever the weather is loaded with water vapour. Alternative phenomenon of warm and windy cold weather of Visakhapatnam needs much more weather pattern studies and its not just that sea temperature profile is the main culprit. 85% relative humidity does keeps the people from sweating and in spite that the weather is cool. The author has some ingenious ideas of controlled weather in Visakhapatnam city.
