In India, it is indeed very difficult to get Meterorogical Data from Indian Meterorological Department (IMD)....with the brilliant effort from Indian Water Portal... IMD has come out with the datasets from 1901-2002.. India water Portal has put this data as...."Entire datasets from 1901 to 2002 for any part of India based on simple on-line dropdown menus is made available for users. Users are encouraged to use this data judiciously. From this dataset, several useful estimates pertaining to the water balance can be made."..

Thats a great information you have provided.Many works are carried out but many of them are known to few people only. information like this will really help many people updated. Thank you once again ...Raghava
Unfortunately, my work district (Bhadrak) is not there,, I have found that generally IMD is not very good for weather predictions too,, and often I have to rely on the JTWC (Joint Typhoon Warning Center) for weather predictions especially during monsoons,, when the orissa coast is susceptible to cyclones and depressions..
Thats the reason I have got our own Automated Weather Station..
