is similar to figure 1.2a but probabilities of a wetter season than last year and of 10-year extremes are presented. A wetter season than 2019 is predicted to be generally very unlikely. This is not surprising given that 2019 was a record wet year in many locations. With reference to the skill

events in Nepal Studying past extreme rainfall events in South Asia has highlighted the importance of the timing and location of monsoon rainfall. Extreme events often occur during years with high variability in monsoon rains, and not necessarily years with above average seasonal rainfall. Extreme
