The India Meteorological Department has revised its monsoon arrival forecast to June for Kerala. This revision comes amid concerns over the El Nino threat to the 2026 monsoon season.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has revised its forecast for the arrival of the monsoon in Kerala to June. This change in the monsoon's expected arrival time is significant, especially considering the potential impact of the El Nino phenomenon on the monsoon season. The IMD's revision indicates that the monsoon may arrive later than initially anticipated. The El Nino threat has been a concern for the 2026 monsoon season, and the revised forecast will be closely watched by farmers, policymakers, and the general public alike. The state-wise expected dates for the monsoon's arrival will provide more clarity on the situation. For now, the focus remains on how the El Nino threat will affect the monsoon's progression across the country.
