According to IMD, India received 10% more rain in June than usual, and the monsoon will be typical in July.

NewDelhi: Even while residents in many regions of north India, particularly the Delhi NCR, begged for rain during the warm month of June, the remainder of the country received far more than typical.

According to the India Meteorological Department, the country received 10% more rain in June than usual.

“Combined rainfall during this year’s Southwest Monsoon until June 30 was roughly 10% above the Long Period Average (LPA) for the country as a whole,” the IMD reported.

It noted that actual rainfall during the same period was 18.29 cm, compared to the usual of 16.69 cm.

IMD forecasted typical monsoon rainfall in July on Thursday (July 1).

The northernmost boundary of the southwest monsoon passes through Barmer, Bhilwara, Dholpur, Aligarh, Meerut, Ambala, and Amritsar, according to the IMD. The southwest monsoon is unlikely to move into the remaining areas of Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana, and Punjab until July 7.
