SEASONAL CLIMATE OUTLOOK FOR SOUTH ASIA
Consensus forecast of 2016 SW Monsoon Rainfall over South Asia (issued in April every year)
Above-normal rainfall is most likely during the 2016 southwest monsoon season (June –
September) over much of South Asia. More specifically:
• Above-normal rainfall is most likely over broad areas of central and western South Asia.
• Below-normal rainfall is most likely over eastern parts of the region and the southeastern
part of the peninsula.
• Normal rainfall is most likely over the remaining areas.

Consensus Forecast Map: 2016 Northeast Monsoon Seas on (OND)
Normal rainfall is most likely over most parts of south Asia during the 2016 Northeast monsoon season (October – December). However, below normal rainfall is likely over some areas of southeast peninsular India, Sri Lanka and Maldives. Below normal rainfall is also likely over some areas of north and eastern parts of the region. Above normal rainfall is likely over western and northwestern parts of Pakistan and some northeastern parts of the region.
During the season, normal to slightly above normal temperatures are likely, over most parts of the region.

RIMES COUNCIL
• 1st RIMES Council Meeting was held in 2009 and 8th RIMES Council was held during 1-2 July 2016. Program Unit located at AIT Campus, Bangkok
• While 14 Countries signed the RIMES Cooperation Agreement, 19 collaborating Countries are at various stages of completing Government formalities to sign the RIMES Cooperation Agreement to become RIMES Member States.
• RIMES serves as an interface institution between Scientific and Technical institutions that generate early warning information and user institutions that apply information for decision making purposes
• End-to-end, connecting technology and vulnerable communities, and integrating early warning with preparedness, prevention, mitigation, and response domains
• Multi-hazard, seamless integration of low frequency and high impact -hazards and high frequency and low impact hazards into existing national warning systems,
• Establishment of RIMES Sub–regional hub at Papua New Guinea in 2017 , could enable to better serve in West Pacific Islands

CORE ACTIVITIES OF RIMES PROGRAM UNIT
Earthquake & Tsunami Watch ProvisionRIMES provides the following services to National Tsunami Warning Centers of Member States:• Seismic, sea level and deep ocean monitoring• Data exchange, processing and analysis, and archiving• provision of earthquake alerts and regional tsunami bulletins
Weather, Climate and Hydrological Research and DevelopmentRIMES provides the following services to National Meteorological and Hydrological Services:• Generation of localized and customized:
◦ severe weather and short-term weather information for contingency planning◦ medium-term weather information for logistics planning◦ seasonal climate outlook for longer-term resource planning and management
• Analysis of risks to climate variability and change, and identification of risk management and adaptation options
• Development of decision support tools• Development of new generation risk information products
Capacity Building in End-to-End Early WarningRIMES provides the following services to national and local level institutions within each Member States' early warning frameworks:• Assistance in establishing and maintaining observation and monitoring stations of regional benefit• Training of scientists: in-country training and through secondment arrangements at the RIMES Regional
Facility• Development of decision-support tools and their application. These include risk assessment, interpretation and
translation of early warning information products into impact outlooks and response options.• Application of tailored risk information at different time scales in decision-making• Early warning system audits• Strengthening national early warning provider and user interface
� User integration in the early warning system through multi-hazard Monsoon /SeasonalForums, which have ben introduced/ institutionalized in 15 countries ( Armenia, Bangladesh,Bhutan, Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Maldives, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan,Seychelles, Sri Lanka, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam)
� WMO/ ESCAP Panel on Tropical Cyclones in its 43rd Session in March 2016 to leverageRIMES institutional and technical resource to integrate RSMC products into country specificimpact outlooks through capacity building of user institutions in PTC member counties . Thisinstitutional mechanism could be extended to cover WMO’s SWDP in South and South EastAsia region as well.
� WMO can leverage unique RIMES institutional resource to integrate WMO GFCS program inSouth Asian countries though the involvement of NHMS from respective project countries.
� Under an umbrella of MOU, ECMWF is providing data streams access to RIMES program unitto enable RIMES to provide customized value added services to many RIMES countries.
� 14 Member States: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Comoros, India, Lao PDR, Madagascar,Maldives, Mongolia, Myanmar, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Seychelles, Sri Lanka, andTimor-Leste
� 5 Cooperating States - Bhutan, Mauritius, Mozambique, Nepal, and Vietnam are now at thefinal stage of Agreement approval
� Enhanced provision of weather and climate services are implemented in Myanmar and SriLanka by developing and generating 3-day, 10-day, monthly, and seasonal forecast products,and climate change projections for provision of seamless weather and climate information inresponse to user demands, and in engaging with users for forecast application

• Enhancing provision of hydrological services
• provided to Bangladesh Water Development Board in utilizing weather and climate information forgenerating seamless flood forecast products, and in engaging with end users for reducing disaster
risks;
• Efforts are on to develop basin-scale flood forecasting systems for priority basins in Myanmar(Ayeyarwady, Sittoung, and Chindwin), Nepal (Narayani, Babai, and Karnali), and the Philippines
(Marikina-Pasig, Agno, and Pampanga), with support from the Government of India;
• Enhancing provision of ocean services,
• the integration of tsunami Service Level 3 into ocean information services for developing and
sustaining tsunami warning capacities, while building ocean information products and services inconcerned Member States - Seychelles; Maldives; Sri Lanka; Comoros
• India is supporting Integrated Ocean Information Services Program to other Indian Ocean and
South China Sea countries, in collaboration with the Indian National Centre for Ocean InformationServices (INCOIS);
• Building Service provider-user dialogues through Monsoon Forums,
• Established active Monsoon Forums in Armenia, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, Lao PDR,Maldives, Mongolia, Myanmar, Nepal, Pakistan, Philippines, Seychelles, Sri Lanka, and Timor-Leste, which have improved and enriched interactions between NMHSs and users toward
increased forecast utilization in planning and decision-making;
• National forums have evolved into sub-national forums in Lao PDR and Myanmar;
• UN-ESCAP has been instrumental in RIMES' institutional strengthening, with its funding support for establishing institutional mechanisms and processes from 2009 to 2012, and in supporting Master Plan implementation through several capacity building projects from 2011.
• RIMES 7th Council and its Second Ministers Conference recommended that each country could mobilize resources in country in collaboration with disaster management agencies and other sector agencies to implement RIMES Master plan 2016-2020 (estimated at US $ 60 million) with technical assistance from RIMES
• RIMES GCF Accreditation Committee initiated RIMES’ GCF accreditation process, with support of GCF National Designated Authorities (NDAs) of the Governments of Maldives and Seychelles. . RIMES application submission for GCF accreditation is underway.
