The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a significant weather update indicating that heavy rains have been prevalent across all parts of the country this year. Surprisingly, the rain showers persist even into September, with IMD forecasting this rainy spell to extend through the entirety of October.
Adding to the weather dynamics, the Meteorological Department has highlighted a major development concerning La Nina. The onset of La Nina conditions is anticipated to manifest in September, a period typically associated with the monsoon season. La Nina, occurring towards the end of the monsoon, is known to trigger a notable dip in temperatures. The Meteorological Department warns of a potential escalation in cold conditions due to the escalated rainfall.
Northern regions of India are poised to receive substantial rainfall during September, with indications pointing to a continuation of these showers into October, influenced by the La Nina phenomenon. El Nino and La Nina events, resulting from slight fluctuations in sea surface temperatures, can orchestrate significant alterations in global weather patterns. While El Nino leads to warmer surface temperatures, La Nina induces cooler conditions. During La Nina, strong easterly winds propel ocean waters westward, causing a rapid cooling of the sea surface and fostering the formation of rain clouds.
The weather experts emphasize that these fluctuations are attributed to La Nina and El Nino occurrences. IMD forecasts the return of the monsoon in September due to the La Nina effect, potentially triggering a robust atmospheric impact in the Bay of Bengal. This atmospheric influence could sustain rain showers well into September and October, potentially delaying the conclusion of the monsoon season.
