This study is aimed at reconciling inconsistencies between modeling studies of the Indian monsoon-Eurasian snow cover relationship, which support the Blanford hypothesis, and recent diagnostic studies, which have largely failed to show its existence. Recently released version 2 NOAA/NESDIS satellite-based retrievals of snow cover are used. A focus is given to diagnosing (a) spatial and temporal complexity in the Eurasian snow cover distribution, (b) the role of ENSO in modulating the snow cover-all-India rainfall (AIR) relationship, and (c) the spatial distribution of the rainfall association within India.
