Heatwave Grips India While Monsoon Advances
Several states in India are currently facing unusually high temperatures.
In Assam, the early arrival of the monsoon caused it to weaken and bring less rain than usual, leading to the heat.
Uttar Pradesh is also very hot and is expected to remain so until mid-June, although some areas might get pre-monsoon showers soon.
Meanwhile, West Bengal is expecting heavy rain, signaling the arrival of the monsoon, which is predicted to reach northwest India by the end of June.
Assam, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal are experiencing heatwave conditions.
Early monsoon onset in Assam led to a weakened monsoon and low rainfall, contributing to the heat.
Uttar Pradesh is expected to experience heatwave conditions until June 15, with pre-monsoon showers starting in the east.
West Bengal is likely to receive heavy rainfall as the monsoon advances next week.
Monsoon is expected to advance over northwest India, including Delhi, by June 25.
