Aaj Ka Mausam: South-West Monsoon has now become increasingly active in the entire country. The Meteorological Department has issued an alert of heavy rain, thunderstorm and lightning in 15 states including Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Punjab, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir for July 3. There is a possibility of strong winds blowing at a speed of 80 to 85 kilometers per hour in many areas. Due to the low-pressure area formed in the Bay of Bengal and the active monsoon system, the rainy season may continue for the next few days. The Meteorological Department has appealed to the people to remain alert and take necessary precautions.
IMD Heavy Rains: The monsoon has now arrived in full force across the country. From the national capital, Delhi, to the city of dreams, Mumbai, heavy rains have begun. Areas that suffered from heat and humidity until late June are now covered in clouds. The latest forecast from the Meteorological Department (IMD) indicates that heavy to very heavy rainfall, strong winds of up to 80 to 85 kilometers per hour, lightning, and hailstorms are expected in many parts of the country over the next few days. Consequently, the risk of waterlogging in cities, landslides in hilly states, rising river levels, and falling trees has also increased. The IMD states that multiple weather systems operating simultaneously are strengthening the monsoon. Therefore, this is not just normal rainfall, but could prove to be a high-impact weather event in many states.
The weather is changing rapidly in many states from Delhi to Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra and South India. The low pressure area formed in the Bay of Bengal, active cyclonic circulation near the North Odisha coast, off-shore trough from South Gujarat to Karnataka and western disturbances are continuously strengthening the monsoon. The Meteorological Department says that this system will become more active in the next two to three days, due to which the scope of rain in North and Eastern India will increase further. In many areas the temperature may fall by 2 to 5 degrees Celsius, but with this there will also be a danger of strong winds and lightning. Therefore, along with relief, caution will also be necessary.
The northern limit of the monsoon has now reached Delhi, all of Uttar Pradesh, most parts of Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, and several areas of Rajasthan. The Meteorological Department predicts that the monsoon will rapidly advance into the rest of northwest India over the next two to three days. This could have a positive impact on agriculture, but problems like waterlogging and traffic jams may increase in cities with weak drainage systems.
This time, meteorologists’ biggest concern is that several weather systems are simultaneously active. The low-pressure area over the northwest Bay of Bengal is steadily strengthening. Along with this, the monsoon trough, cyclonic circulation, off-shore trough, and western disturbances are also active. The combined effect of all these could lead to heavy rain, thunderstorms, and lightning in several states simultaneously. Therefore, the Meteorological Department has advised people to avoid unnecessary travel and stay in safe places during bad weather.
Monsoon makes a strong entry into Delhi-NCR
Monsoon has become fully active in Delhi-NCR. An alert of heavy rain and strong storm has been issued in the capital on July 3.

The maximum temperature is expected to be 36 degrees and minimum 30 degrees Celsius. Continuous rain will provide relief to people from humidity and heat.
