    • Thanks for asking, okay i will try to make you understand in brief. Actually if you go through the topography of the Lumding area, you will find it is surrounded by mountain known as Mikir Hills and so the wind(mainly coming from the bay of Bengal) directly passes upward due to the height of the mountain, it is also known as Leeward side of the mountain, which remain completely dry or less rainfall occur. Not only in Lumding, in any part of the world, you will find Leeward side of the Mountainous region which remain dry and so the average rainfall is very low compared to other regions. In Assam many other places are also there such as Golaghat, Barpathar, Sarupathar etc etc as they mainly fall in the Leeward side of the Mountain Naga Hills( Naga Thrust), but the annual rainfall is not that too much low comparatively to Lumding. Hope i am able to make you understand. I Know you will still get confuse so i suggest to check once the google map in satellite mode the area of the Lumding.
