Uhm, yeh! I'll wait patiently until the 3 days of dew point above 55 show up.

I think this new definition will be discarded over time because I believe to many monsoon has always implied rain and and three consecutive days with dew point above 55 is a better measure than the new definition. It is interesting to note though, that this morning there were a few sprinkles of rain, just by chance on the day of the new definition.
