ABSTRACT
             Varied events world over of rainfalls sporadic and erratic. Mudslides, land slides and floods marked North India. On 20th July Maharashtra received a gush of 24hour rain. On 18th July around 7h30mPM the Visakhapatnam coastal city, became cool devoid of the unbearable heat that lasted gripping the town from 24th June to 18th July till 7h30m PM. The rains in Visakhapatnam city were sporadic, scanty and irregular during the last week of July 2015. My B'Day on 23rd July as celebrated by Dr. K. Lalitha Kumari M.D. (USA), with lots of sweets and good home food with special preparations.
 
INTRODUCTION

Visakhapatnam Heat Wave
              Since July 1st Heat Wave conditions prevailed in Visakhapatnam and the heat wave hot condition weather dominated the city during the last eight days. There was a death reported of a lady about 60 years old, due to Heat Wave in the city.    
           
  
 
LANDSLIDES

            Mud sliding in Darjeeling killed 38 and many missing on Wednesday 1st July 2015,  with hill side washed away due to three days that continued next five days. Landslides occurred at several places in Mongpong and Sevoke Kalibari leaving people stranded on 31st High Way.

GERMANY AND WEST HEAT

          On Sunday 5th July  Germany suffers from 40.3 degree C hottest temperature since 1881 and France at 34 degrees C at Nice. Heat wave in wide parts of Europe has pushed  Germany over the previous record of 40.2 in 2003.  
 
VISAKHAPATNAM BEACH
                  
 
                              Visakhapatnam recorded highest July temperature after 18 years on Monday 16th July 2015 at 39.9 degrees while on 15th July it was 37.2 degrees. It touched 37 degrees on July 11th in 2006 and again on July 2, 2013. Strong dry winds westerly and north westerly direction and absence of upper air circulation or troughs of Bay of Bengal contributed to the hot weather.
  
RAIN IN OHAMA
               In Ohama, it rained on 6th July evening when Dr. Vijaya Vani stayed with Chitti and children at their residence and moved next morning to her work place.

SPACEWORLD DATA
           "There were strong convective thunderstorms visible from my observing site at the Seč reservoir," says Horálek. "I waited almost 3 hours--and finally the sprites appeared. I could see one of them with my naked eye even in strong moonlight."  "Sprites are a true space weather phenomenon," says lightning scientist Oscar van der Velde of the Technical University of Catalonia, Spain. "They develop in mid-air around 80 km altitude (the same altitude as noctilucent clouds and meteors). This happens when a fierce lightning bolt draws lots of charge from a cloud near Earth's surface. Electric fields [shoot] to the top of Earth's atmosphere--and the result is a sprite. The entire process takes about 20 milliseconds." Some researchers believe that cosmic rays play a role, too: subatomic particles from deep space strike the top of Earth's atmosphere, providing the "sparks" that ignites this strange form of upward lightning.

JULY 5th, 2015
                 Heavy rains on Sunday lashed hilly areas of north India with Uttarkhanda government issuing an alert in the state even as Punjab and Haryana witnessed hot and humid weather conditions. According to the Meterological Department, the maximum temperature in the national capital touched 38.4 degrees Celsius, two notches above normal, while the minimum temperature was 31.2 degrees Celsius which was four notches above the season's average.  It also said that rainfall recorded in the past 24 hours was nil. The humidity in air oscillated between 51 per cent and 64 per cent.



 ABOUT INDIA PAST HISTORY

               Excavations at Harappa, Mohenjo-daro and other sites of the Indus Valley civilization have uncovered evidence of the use of "practical mathematics". The people of the IVC manufactured bricks whose dimensions were in the proportion 4:2:1, considered favourable for the stability of a brick structure. They used a standardised system of weights based on the ratios: 1/20, 1/10, 1/5, 1/2, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500, with the unit weight equals approximately 28 grams (and approximately equal to the English ounce or Greek uncia). They mass-produced weights in regular geometrical shapes, which included hexahedra, barrels, cones, and cylinders, thereby demonstrating  knowledge of basic geometry.

              India today is estimated to have about thirty million manuscripts, the largest body of handwritten reading material anywhere in the world. The literate culture of Indian science goes back to at least the fifth century B.C.

CHENNAI ISRO BRITISH SATELLITES

                 Chennai:  ISRO is all set for its "heaviest" commercial mission to put in orbit five British satellites, with the countdown beginning today for the July 10 launch of India's PSLV-C28 from space port of Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh. The 62.5-hour countdown began today at 07.28 AM and is progressing smoothly.  ISRO's workhorse Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) will blast off at 9.58 PM on July 10 from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, about 90 km from Chennai, and put in orbit the five satellites.


INDIA'S WEATHER 
                 Bengal and Bangladesh on Wednesday  8th July 2015 the low-depression formed due to this in Utara Bharat, Himachala Pradesh and some area of North India flooded by rains, would have rains for about 10 days but in the State of Andhra and Telangana there was no rain and Ryots worried since last ten days the heat wave has literally gripped all the regions of Telanagana and Andhra Pradesh.  Last three days the low-depression got stuck in the sea near the Coastal Districts of AP, preventing flow of cold breeze from the sea. In the Arabian Sea also deep depression formation preventing the movement of clouds over to the land.

 RESEARCH BANGLADESH AND INDIA OXYGEN DEPLETION

        NIO and Dhaka University to study Bangladesh Rivers for Oxygen depletion in Bay of Bengal under a MOU by sampling waters from rivers in Bangladesh and Bay of Bengal  Thick Oxygen  minimum levels between 150 to 600 meters where oxygen was found to be at zero level. The increasing run-off of nitrogen from agricultural fields in Bangladesh results in depletion of Oxygen. Nitrogen produces algae and harmful algae blooms and when they die they deplete oxygen from the water. High nitrate concentration in drinking water causes blue baby syndrome.
Sat July 11th, 2015

               Rain puts Amarnath Yatra on hold due to increase in rain fall since Thursday 9th July night and Baltal and Pahalgam routes of travel held up. Helicopters services to the cave shrine are operating as usual. More than 1.10 lakh pilgrims have paid obeisance to the naturally formed ice Shiva-lingam inside the cave shrine.   Rains subsided and yatra continued on the Saturday morning of 11th July 2015 after a day’s suspension.  Heavy rains in Kolkata made people to wade through the waters of flooded roads on Friday 10th July.

             Landslips hit Shimla and Kinnaur districts of Himachal due to heavy rains for the second day on Saturday 11th July. Traffic on the Manali-Leh highway was disrupted for several hours on Friday 11thnight. Chokanga village badly affected and crops of potato and peas were washed away. Sirmaur recorded 150mm rainfall and Nahan recorded about 70mm. Dharmapuri in Mandi got 83mm, Kasauli 61mm, Kandaghat, Sangrah, and Rajgarh 49mm each.

It is possible to perform the experiments in the class rooms itself without the necessity of students moving around. Draft material for the entire year prepared for ready reference to students. Patent right given to ED Balabhaskar and Sucharita of Genesis Education Labs.   

 North India Floods

               Gujarat flash floods have killed 10 lions and 90 spotted deer and more than 1600 blue bulls among other wild animals mainly occurred in Amreli and Bhavnagar districts.    Incessant rains at several places in J & K forced pilgrims to suspend Amarnath Yatra with closure of the Srinagar- Jammu National Highway.

              On Sunday several vast swaths of North India effected by landslides, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarkhand, and Uttar Pradesh and several rivers are flowing around danger marks. Rain continued unabated for the fourth day on Sunday 12th July, water logged many places in Delhi with Safdarjung observatory recorded 68.6mm rainfall,  in the  last 24 hours while Lodhi Rd, Ayanagar, Ridge and  Palam recorded 78.2mm, 77.4mm,76.2mm and 98.4mm. Till Saturday Delhi received 147.8mm rainfall, the highest of the season.

THERIGATHA WRITTEN IN 600BC WOMEN’S WRITING

                   This is the earliest known composition of woman writing with verses penned, a mother whose child died, a former prostitute, a wealthy heiress  who renounced her pleasure and wealth and the Buddha’s own step mother. Therigatha shows many ordinary women were also well educated in ancient India. Gargi an unmarried women one of the Navaratnas of King Janaka of Mithila debated with   Yajnyavalkya who was unable to answer her questions. About 20 women were mentioned in Rig Veda hymns. (Int. Women’s Education Day article by an Economist at JNU, Delhi)

VISAKHAPATNAM HOT WEATHER

             The Visakhapatnam recorded 37 degrees C hot weather on 13th July. It rained for a few minutes on Monday 13th July around 4PM, though clouds formed and cooled the city, by evening 3PM but it resulted in the release of heat from the ground and while walking for the market I found hot vapour wind in Muralinagar over the land around 5PM.

MONSOON VANISHING

             Farms are drying up in Rayalseema, as the draught and a farmer committed suicide in Vangur Mandal of Mahababhunagar  district on Monday, who planted BT cotton in five acres of land. In Hyderabad it was almost back to summer days with 36.4 degrees C on Monday 13th July, with ground water levels plummeting and people depend on tankers for water supply. Rain bearing systems are moving north-westwards. 80% of agriculture in Telangana. dependent on rain or ground water tens of thousands of hectares of farm lands have started turning dry   
 9:03am July 12, 2015    Mexico's Volcano of Fire' erupts

                
More than 80 people left nearby communities after the volcano sent a four-kilometre column of ash skyward late on Friday 10th July. Ash and lava continued to flow out the crater on Saturday. One village at the foot of the mountain, Yerbabuena, was smothered in up to five centimetres of ash, authorities said, and rain also tumbled down, adding to the misery. Ash travelled as far as the city of Colima, where residents wore masks as a thin layer of talc-like material covered streets and cars.

VOLCANO SPELLS FRESH INDONESIA

            On Sunday 12th July 3300m Mount Raung emitted a column of Ash and steam in Jember district of Indonesia Java Island. It led  to the closure of Airport at Bali, just a day after its reopen, Mount Raung erupting for weeks.

          Volcanic eruptions may have slowed down global warming by injecting particulates into the atmosphere, according to a study. Volcanic aerosols have acted during the last 10 years as a natural umbrella to slow down global temperature increase from greenhouse gases, researchers said. Although global concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has continuously increased over the past decade, the mean global surface temperature has not followed the same path.

                 A massive cold front is sweeping through Australia which has brought gale force winds and snow. One feature of the Antarctic vortex is just how quickly it can change weather conditions, as evidenced by dashcam footage taken by motorist Raymond Lucas while he drove along the Hume Highway near Barnawartha in Victoria yesterday. The video which was posted online overnight, shows a beautiful blue sky quickly wiped out by storm clouds – in le

         A research crew has accidentally discovered a cluster of extinct volcanoes off the coast of Sydney. The four structures, thought to be 50 million years old, were found by the crew of research vessel Investigator during a 16-day hunt for lobster breeding grounds. Situated around 150 miles off the Sydney coast, the 12-mile formations are calderas, craters formed after a volcano erupts and the land around it collapses. The largest has a rim a mile across and rises half a mile from the bottom of the ocean floor.  Less than two minutes, Mr Lucas is driving along a blanket of hail thick enough to resemble snow.

 14th July Manila
                  Torrential monsoon rains killed at least eight people in the Philippines, the country's disaster relief agency said today, and the toll was expected to rise as two tropical storms battered northern Luzon, the main island in the archipelago. The deluge over the past week forced the closure of government offices and schools in Manila, and caused widespread flooding on major roads and landslides outside the capital. About 40,000 people across Luzon were affected by the monsoon rain and nearly 4,000 were in temporary shelters due to floods and landslides.

PENTAQUARK NEW FIND OF LHCb

           This model also allowed for other quark states, such as the pentaquark. This purely theoretical particle was composed of four quarks and an antiquark (the anti-matter equivalent of an ordinary quark). Physicists studied the way a sub-atomic particle called Lambda b decayed, or transformed, into three other particles inside LHCb. The analysis revealed that intermediate states were sometimes involved in the production of the three particles. These intermediate states have been named Pc(4450)+ and Pc(4380)+. "We have examined all possibilities for these signals, and conclude that they can only be explained by pentaquark states," said LHCb physicist of Syracuse University, US. "The pentaquark is not just any new particle. It represents a way to aggregate quarks, namely the fundamental constituents of ordinary protons and neutrons, in a pattern that has never been observed before in over fifty years of experimental searches. "Studying its properties may allow us to understand better how ordinary matter, the protons and neutrons from which we're all made, is constituted."

     CERN’s LHCb experiment reports observation of exotic pentaquark particles
                                     LHCb researchers looked for pentaquark states by examining the decay of a baryon known as Λb (Lambda b) into three other particles, a J/ψ- (J-psi), a proton and a charged kaon. Studying the spectrum of masses of the J/ψ and the proton revealed that intermediate states were sometimes involved in their production.        
                                               
                   The not-quite-obvious mystery implied by antimatter creation  is that there should be a whole lot of antimatter out there somewhere in the universe, just as much as there is regular matter in fact. However, that appears not to be the case. While it's true that antimatter has the same potential to form into all of the amazing structures of the universe, from DARK MATTER to human life, we can reasonably say that what we're looking at out there is regular matter with little to no antimatter interspersed.

                           SYDNEY (AP): A tsunami threat was canceled Saturday after a strong earthquake 6.9R  struck the Santa Cruz Islands in the South Pacific and no damage or casualties were reported.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said the quake measured 6.9, down from a preliminary magnitude of 7.5. It hit at a depth of 33 kilometers (20 miles) and was centered undersea 75 kilometers (47 miles) northwest of Lata in the eastern Solomon Islands, where the Santa Cruz Islands are located.

July 20th,
                 An entire village locked up their homes, before Sunrise and moved for a nearby forest to observe 'vanavasam', due to lack of rains for the last three years. They are facing another dry spell. Prayed the Rain God. A befuddled local police deployed a patrol party to Tumla Penpahad in Atmakur(S) mandal for security and protection o property. All the houses were found locked. They believe that an evil spirit has struck and cannot understand the drought of the three years.

AIRGLOW: Tuesday, Jul. 21, 2015
            This is called airglow Although it resembles the aurora borealis, the underlying physics is different. Airglow is caused by an assortment of chemical reactions in the upper atmosphere driven mainly by solar ultraviolet radiation; auroras, on the other hand, are ignited by gusts of solar wind. Green airglow is best photographed from extremely dark sites on nights when the Moon is new or below the horizon. It often shows up in long exposures of the Milky Way.
FLOODS HIT ASSAM PADDY CROP

            Murali Narayana Dulla an octogenarian brought out first five alphabets of Telugu language encyclopedia published by Benarus Hindu University starting in 2011. It includes general physics, electronics, optical electronics, robotics and micro-controllers. It served the purpose of several academic research projects by different scholars of renowned Universities  in  India. He is the founder of Optical Engineering Laboratory Machilipatnam, established in 1954, and was closed in 2012 due to lack of technicians and committed learners to run it. He manufactured Crystal optic products used by eminent scientists all over India.    

30th July 2015
         The epicentre of deep depression lies in Gujarat. Around 400 villages are without electricity and about 1005 poles got uprooted. Heavy rain coupled with gusts affected four districts of North Gujarat, killing over 22 people people, in about 48 hours until 4pm on Tuesday. People residing in Suigam, Tharad, Lakhani and Dhanera, towns close to 1000 people were shifted to safer  places.
                             
                       
                    Palanpur, North Gujarat, inundated due
                         to heavy rains on Wednesday.
 
                                     Banaskantha district worst hit with rains created a flood-like situation especially in towns neighbouring Rajasthan. Flood-like situation in Rajasthan killed four people, in Jalore district during the past 24 hours with the flood-like situation continued even the third day, on Wednesday,  29thJuly 2015. Traffic halted on the Mount-Abu and Abu-road in Sirohi district in the wake of landslides triggered by heavy rains Many villages have been cut off as rain washed away roads at several places in Udaipur district in Rajasthan on 29th  July. About 26 people died as rains wreck havoc in Odisha. The river Subarnarekha swelled crossing danger mark in Odisha state. Authorities of Galudihi dam in Jharkhand released about 1.9 lakh cusec of water on  28th  July. Commuters wade through a flooded road after heavy rains in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.

30th July 2015
     Around the Sun after the rain stopped, a ring appears but on July 29th 2015, the ring showed all the seven colours of the rainbow, an usual site seen in the towns of western Godavari district Viz., Thadepalligudem, Tanuku, Narasapuram, Eluru and surrounding areas nearly for half an hour. The Solar Halo as it is observed known s VARADA GUDU in Telugu language. Around the Sun the Snow flakes or the BINDUS known in Telugu language, at 22 degrees angle this gets formed. 
                                                        
                                
                Probably Cirius (round shaped) clouds formation causes the splashing of these rings, this time all the seven colours took part. Locally they expect rains but other belief  is that it postpones the occurrence of rains for about a fortnight.

         The temperatures rose high during the last week with sultry atmosphere, and in Tirupati, it recorded 40.8 degrees C (six degrees excess), in Kavali 39.4, Ongole 39.3, Nellore 39, Bapatla 38.6 (five degrees excess), and  Kadapha 38 registered. Two successive low depressions weakened hence rains were avoided in both Telugu States. Rajasthan low depression helped that stte but is too far away for the Andhra States to get the benefit of rain.

               A severe tornado-like storm hit the Haringhata block in West Bengal's Nadia district around 3PM on Wednesday 29th July, causing extensive damage but the storm,  with a diameter of 225 m, moved from north to south,  lasted only about a minute has caused immense damage, The storm also affected the nearby Gaighta block in the North 24 Parganas district uprooting about 5000 trees and created a severe storm around 10h30m A.M., on Wednesday that disrupted almost 400 houses.
               
               Cyclone Komen has made landfall in coastal Bangladesh between Bhola and Sandwip. The wind speed is 60-80 km, which implies it is a marginal storm. It will decrease further to become a deep depression..The Cyclone Komen has lost impact after making landfall in coastal Bangladesh this evening. While it has triggered heavy rains in West Bengal and Odisha.
           
               This is  reminder of the severe storm with gale winds that destroyed the city of Visakhapatnam by  HUDHUD originated from a low pressure system that formed under the influence of an upper-air cyclonic circulation in the Andaman Sea on October 6. Hudhud intensified into a cyclonic storm on October 8 and as a Severe Cyclonic Storm on October 9. Hudhud underwent rapid deepening in the following days and was classified as a Very Severe Cyclonic Storm. Shortly before landfall near Visakhapatnam, AP, on October 12, Hudhud reached its peak strength with three minute wind speeds of 175 km/h (109 mph) and a minimum central pressure of 960 mbar (28.35 inHg). HUDHUD cyclone left the Visakhapatnam city on Oct 12, 2014 totally devastated. It uprooted all the big trees of the city. Many trees uprooted destroyed electric poles, power lines, transformers and service wires for domestic connection. On Oct.12, 2014 at 8AM and again at 10AM the mild Earth Tremors occurred in Official Colony and the third and fourth floors slightly swung. The super storm struck Visakhapatnam on the Oct. 12, 2014 from morning 6.30AM to evening 11PM, with crossing of super-cyclone around 13h04m wind that increased in power by 13h27m. At 13h32, 13h33m and at 13h34m heavy wind developed. But at 13h40m heavy wind spiraling upward noticed and commented by Prayascha. The wind speed exceeded 205km. The system from AP drifted northwards towards Uttar Pradesh and Nepal, causing widespread rains in both areas and heavy snowfall in the latter. Heavy rainfall accompanied by hailstorms lashed the central and western regions of Nepal for the past days of Oct 16, 2014, with snowfall of 4 to 5meters height. Severe weather triggered the tail end of cyclone Hudhud, which battered India’s east coast, hit trekking groups at Mount Dhaulagiri in Central Nepal and Annapurna in Thorang Pass area which lies between border of Manang and Mustang districts.

NASA SPOTS RED ARCS ON ICY SATURN MOON
        Like graffiti sprayed by an unknown artist, NASA's Cassini space craft spotted unexplained arc-shaped reddish streaks, curved  lines, and narrow on the surface of Saturn's icy Moon northern areas of Tethys. More reddish features do occur on the geologically young surface of Jupiter's  moon Europa.

AURORA BEYOND SOLAR SYSTEM
         Aurora outside our solar system around a brown dwarf about 18 light years away from Earth which is up to 10,000 times more powerful than any previously seen has been discovered by American Astronomers. Discovery shows a major difference in the magnetic activity o more massive stars and that of brown dwarfs and planets. Aurora activity replaces solar-like coronal activity on brown dwarfs. Astronomers discovered LSR J1835+3259 using VLA at radio wavelengths along with the 5-meter Hale Telescope on Palmore Mountain and the 10-meter Keck Telescope in Hawaii at optical wave lengths.  The observation is similar to what is seen on the Jupiter, but thousands of times more powerful. Aurorae are caused by cosmic rays, solar wind and magneto-spheric  plasma interacting with upper atmosphere. Work with international team from US, UK, Ireland, Germany, Russia and Bulgaria. Study published in Nature.

THURSDAY 30th July 2015
                   Thursday in the journal Science, researchers said they spent months analyzing the data and concluded that 67P contains at least 16 organic compounds. Four of them, including acetone, hadn't been detected on a comet before. "Comets are loaded with all the raw materials like water, CO2, methane, ammonia, needed to assemble more complex organic molecules, perhaps is sparked by UV-photons from the Sun or cosmic rays, or in the shock that occurs when a comet hits the surface of a planet like the young Earth,"

FISH DEAD DUE TO HOT WATER 30th July 2015
      More than a quarter million sockeye salmon returning from the ocean to spawn are either dead or dying in the Columbia River and its tributaries due to warming water temperatures.
Federal and state fisheries biologists say the warm water is lethal for the cold-water species and is wiping out at least half of this year's return of 500,000 fish.

31st July 2015
             Don't miss Friday's blue moon. You won't get a chance to see another until 2018.

Moon Photo taken at 19h44m P.M. on 31st July 2015
from Dr.Lalitha Kumari Bed Room Window at Murali Nagar.
 
                         Today is Guru Pournima (full Moon day, the day on which Saint (Rushi) Vysha Maharashi was born) many people  observe the special prayers and worship to the saint (Rushi).
 

                          It has been noticed that the evening just before Moon Rise around 7PM the sky was lit up with blue colour. Of course, Moon was seen, with grate difficulty, with a slight tinge of Bluish phase. There are two definitions of a Blue Moon in astronomy; both are a type of full moon. If the moon actually looks blue, it's caused by a rare type of dust in the atmosphere. A Moon that actually looks blue, however, is a very rare sight. The Moon, full or any other phase, can appear blue when the atmosphere is filled with dust or smoke particles of a certain size; slightly wider than 0.7 micron. The particles scatter the red light making the Moon appear blue in color, this can happen for instance after a dust storm, forest fire or a volcanic eruption.

PLUTO
 
    
                      The path of New Horizons as it flew past Pluto on July 14 took it directly into the dwarf planet's shadow, and while this provided a fascinating opportunity to see its atmosphere lit up by the Sun, it also allowed the spacecraft to see the effects of solar wind on Pluto.What New Horizons found is that the atmosphere is being stripped away by the solar wind, creating a huge region of cold and dense ionized gas that extends tens of thousands of miles beyond Pluto. This essentially creates a “hole” or cavity in the surrounding solar wind, which was detected between 77,000 and 109,000 kilometers (48,000 and 68,000 miles) behind Pluto. It is mostly composed of nitrogen ions, which form a plasma tail, although scientists aren’t yet sure what shape or size this tail is. It resembles the gaseous ion tails of comets, which extend far behind the icy rocks as they travel through the Solar System.

Pluto has five known moons:               

    The moons are Charon (discovered in 1978,), Hydra and Nix (both discovered in 2005), Kerberos originally P4 (discovered 2011) and Styx originally P5 (discovered 2012) official designations S/2011 (134340) 1 and  S/2012 (134340) 1.

COMETS
         My mother Mrs. Kotcherlakota Peramma, w/o Prof. K. R Rao told me that the comets that fall upon Earth give birth to extraordinary personalities, since the comets falling hold the basic elements of  "Human Life". It is surprising to note that even the distant Planet like Pluto holds the essential life elements and further including actone etc. but with extensive comet like tail. The life elements must have been accumulated on its surface by the Oort's cloud comets that have bombarded it over several years.
