IMD forecasts below-normal monsoon rainfall, above-normal heatwaves in June
New Delhi , May 29 : The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Friday issued its second-stage long-range forecast for the southwest monsoon season, projecting below-normal rainfall across several key regions of the country while warning of heatwave conditions in multiple states starting in June. Addressing a press conference, Director General of Meteorology Dr Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said the country is expected to receive 90 per cent of the Long Period Average (LPA) rainfall during the June-September monsoon season, with a model error margin of four per cent. We are providing the second-stage update for the June-September monsoon. Quantitatively, we expect 90 per cent of the LPA, with a 4 per cent model error, Mohapatra said.According to the regional forecast, Northeast India is expected to receive normal rainfall, ranging between 94 and 106 per cent of the LPA. However, Central India, South Peninsular India, Northwest India and the Monsoon Core Zone are likely to experience below-normal rainfall during the season.Providing the outlook for June, Mohapatra said rainfall is expected to remain below normal across most parts of the country, at less than 92 per cent of the LPA. Some areas in Northwest India, Northeast India and the southern peninsula may, however, witness normal to above-normal rainfall.The IMD also forecast above-normal temperatures for most regions during June. Maximum temperatures will be above normal for most of the country, except for parts of Central, Northwest and East India. Minimum temperatures are also expected to remain mostly above normal, Mohapatra said. The weather agency warned of an above-normal number of heatwave days in Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, Bihar, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Parts of Maharashtra, Telangana and Tamil Nadu are also likely to witness increased heatwave activity. On oceanic conditions, Mohapatra said neutral ENSO conditions are transitioning towards El Nino, with the probability of El Nino conditions increasing to 82 per cent by June and crossing 90 per cent by July and August. Neutral Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) conditions are expected to persist throughout the monsoon season.He further noted that rainfall in May has been four per cent above normal nationally, while cumulative seasonal rainfall up to May 27 stood one per cent above normal. Mohapatra said the southwest monsoon advanced into the Andaman and Nicobar Islands on May 16, four days ahead of the normal onset date. It has since progressed into the South Arabian Sea and Lakshadweep, with conditions remaining favourable for its arrival over Kerala and the northeastern states within the next week. Meanwhile, the IMD on Thursday forecasted relief from severe heat across Northwest India over the next three days due to the influence of western disturbances and easterly winds, along with thunderstorms, gusty winds and hailstorm activity in several regions.

The deceased has been identified as Divyanshu Joshi, a resident of Ambedkar Nagar, Delhi. He was part of a four-member team who had come to shoot an advertisement for a Delhi-based garment manufacturing company, reported Manorama Online. The incident occurred at Pettimala rock quarry in Mudakkuzha Panchayat near Kuruppumpady.

Shukla Retained As Bengal Mens Head Coach; Tiwary, Saha, Majumdar Named Age-group Coaches
Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy: The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) has retained former India all-rounder Laxmi Ratan Shukla as head coach of the Bengal senior mens team for the 202627 domestic cricket season, while appointing former Maharashtra batter Surendra Bhave as his deputy. The CAB had invited applications for a broader set of coaching roles on April 24, sparking speculation that Shuklas tenure might end after Bengal were beaten in the Ranji Trophy semi-finals by eventual champions Jammu and Kashmir in Kalyani. But the CAB confirmed his continuation on Thursday after an independent screening process was over, comprising a panel of Arun Lal, Devang Gandhi, and Kalyan Choudhury. The evaluation was conducted strictly independently through comprehensive interviews, ensuring a fair, meritbased and unbiased selection process, it said in a statement. Shukla, who has been in charge of the Bengal senior mens team since 2022, guided Bengal to playing the Ranji Trophy final in 2022/23 and two semifinals. Bhave, who made 7,971 runs from 97 first-class matches at an average of 58.18, brings vast coaching experience and was also a member of the selection committee who picked the 2011 Mens ODI World Cup winning team. Bhave, who will additionally serve as the teams batting consultant, has previously coached Maharashtra, Punjab, and Odisha in domestic cricket. For the 2026-27 Ranji Trophy, Bengal is placed alongside Jharkhand, Maharashtra, Services, Gujarat, Kerala, Delhi, and Odisha. For the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy, Bengal are in Group A alongside reigning champions Jharkhand, Rajasthan, Baroda, Uttar Pradesh, Chandigarh, Karnataka, and Mizoram.

weather-alert-southwest-monsoon-arrival-pushed-to-june-3-by-imd
The South West Monsoon, which was initially expected to arrive in Kerala on Tuesday, will likely be further delayed, according to weather experts. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the monsoon will arrive in Kerala only by June 3. The initial prediction was that the monsoon could start in Kerala before June 1, as the powerful push-pull atmospheric mechanism that propels the phenomenon is currently active. While the Mascarene High, the high-pressure zone that forms in the southern Indian Ocean, is active and has driven monsoon winds as far as Lakshadweep, the low-pressure area over the North Indian plains is also engaged in pulling the cross-equatorial winds toward the Indian subcontinent. However, certain missing parameters have prompted the IMD to announce the delay in the onset of the South West Monsoon. However, the cyclone that formed in the Bay of Bengal and the weakening of the westerly winds caused the delay in the monsoon. In its latest update released on Wednesday, May 27, the IMD said that favorable atmospheric and oceanic conditions have developed for the monsoon to advance further into the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal over the next two to three days. There are also concerns that the monsoon will also arrive in North India in the wake of the delay in Kerala. Historically, the southwest monsoon reaches Delhi around June 27. According to new assessments, this time too, the monsoon is expected to reach Delhi between June 25 and 30. Experts also point out the possibility of the monsoon advancing rapidly after its initial slow pace. The IMD has already warned that the total rainfall in the 2026 monsoon season will be below average due to the El Nino phenomenon across the Pacific Ocean. El Nio reduces rainfall in India and causes frequent changes in weather patterns.
