What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

El Niño conditions are causing the monsoon to arrive late in Maharashtra. The rainfall pattern saw heavy downpours in July, with the Colaba observatory recording 1176 mm in one month. This was followed by a sharp decline in August, where the average rainfall across the state was recorded at 44% below normal. The deficient rainfall is now impacting inflows into Telangana.
