India's monsoon season is at risk due to a strengthening El Nino. The country's rainy season may be affected by this climate phenomenon.
The monsoon season in India is facing a significant threat from a strengthening El Nino. This climate phenomenon has the potential to disrupt the country's rainy season, which is crucial for agriculture and water supply. El Nino is a complex weather pattern that occurs when the surface temperature of the Pacific Ocean warms up more than usual. This warming of the ocean water can have a profound impact on the weather patterns in India, leading to a decrease in rainfall.
