After four consecutive days without rain, the monsoon over Rajasthan is forecast to become active again today, with temperatures hovering around 40°C.
The state of Rajasthan has endured a dry spell of four days, during which no measurable rainfall was recorded and daytime temperatures climbed close to 40°C. Residents across the arid regions reported sweltering conditions and heightened heat stress.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a short‑term forecast indicating that monsoon activity will pick up from today, bringing scattered showers across the western and central districts. The expected rainfall is described as moderate and is likely to provide temporary relief from the extreme heat.
Agricultural stakeholders are watching the development closely, as the renewed monsoon could alleviate water shortages for crops that are already under stress from the prolonged heat. However, officials caution that the showers may be brief and uneven, urging farmers to continue water‑conservation measures.
