Bhaskar Analysis: The winds coming from Pakistan have stopped the monsoon at the gates of UP for 12 days.

The path of monsoon this year is very difficult. Usually, the monsoon reaching Kashmir till now has been stuck on the UP-Bihar border for 12 days. It had reached near Mau district on June 17, but is not able to move due to the hot winds coming from Pakistan through the deserts of Rajasthan. This has happened earlier also in Karnataka, where the monsoon was stuck for 10 days.

According to meteorologists, the air pressure is slightly less in the Bay of Bengal. Because of this, the winds pushing the monsoon forward are not blowing. But, now the westerly winds have started weakening and the winds from the Bay of Bengal have started blowing towards the north-west. Therefore, it is expected that in the next two days, the monsoon can start moving forward.

If this happens, it can reach Kashmir within 8-10 days. After that it can cross Rajasthan and cover the whole country. Monsoon has been weak so far except in the states of South and Northeast. The country receives an average of 150 mm of rain between June 1 and 27. This time it is 135 mm. That is, 10% less.

Humidity disturbed in MP
April-like heat in June in MP, mercury from 350 to 370 for 1 week

Clouds are also disappointed, because there is no strong system to make it rain

Bhopal | The mercury constantly hovers around 35 to 37 degrees. Temperatures two to three degrees above normal. People are suffering from the heat. There are clouds in the sky but it is not raining. Similar weather is prevailing in most areas of the state including Bhopal for the last one week. Even after the arrival of monsoon, it is getting hot like April. The main reason for this is that there is no such monsoon strong system which can cause heavy rains. The indifference of the weather is taking its toll from the farm to the health.

Both the branches of the monsoon are not active… the temperature is increasing and the humidity is also increasing, so it is necessary for us to have more rain here that a low pressure area should be formed in the Bay of Bengal. Such a system has not yet been created. There is no system in the Arabian Sea also. Both the branches of monsoon are not active. Because of this it is not raining heavily. Both the temperature and the humidity are high, so the humidity is also getting higher. – Ved Prakash Singh, meteorologist
