Delhi misses date with monsoon

Written By Unknown on Senin, 30 Juni 2014 | 22.10

NEW DELHI: The southwest monsoon missed its date with Delhi on Sunday and is not expected till the end of this week. Though parts of the city reported light to medium thundershowers on Sunday night, Met officials said they were pre-monsoon showers.

June 29 is the normal date for monsoon to break over the capital but the system stalled over central India between June 15 and 19 and is running late by around two weeks in parts of the country.

TOI had reported last week that the monsoon would be delayed over Delhi.

"During last week, there was no advance of the monsoon and its northern limit continues to pass through Veraval, Surat, Nashik, Washim, Damoh and Sultanpur. Its western end touched the southern tip of Gujarat on June 15 and has been stuck there since then. From there it crosses the northern part of Maharashtra, cuts through Madhya Pradesh and has moved over the southeastern part of Uttar Pradesh. However, its progress over eastern India also last took place on June 19," said a senior Met official.

However, indications are that the system is finally set to advance further. "Conditions are becoming favourable for the advance of the southwest monsoon into some more parts of Uttar Pradesh and some parts of Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu the Kashmir during the next 3 to 4 days." said BP Yadav, director, IMD.

He also added that monsoon revival is likely over many parts of east, adjoining central and north peninsula India from July 6 onwards when above normal rainfall activity is expected. West coast is also likely to experience above normal rainfall activity from the beginning of July onwards.

Meanwhile, Delhi will continue to receive isolated light rain. Thundershowers were reported from some part of the city, sources said that this would be partly due to a fresh western disturbance that is expected to affect northwest India around July 2.

"Rain and thundershowers may occur at one or two places over Punjab, Haryana, Delhi and east Rajasthan on July 2 and 3. However, monsoon is not expected over Delhi till the end of the first week of July," said Met officials.

No significant change in maximum temperatures is expected over northwest, west and central India till Tuesday and then a slight fall over northwest India.

On Sunday, Delhi's maximum temperature was 39.7 degrees celsius, three degrees above normal while the minimum as 30 degrees celsius, two degrees above normal.
