The India Meteorological Department (IMD) confirmed that the monsoon arrived on May 26, earlier than usual, bringing relief from the scorching summer. However, after the initial showers, there was a brief dry spell across many regions. Now, the IMD has once again predicted rainfall across several districts of the state, including Mumbai, Raigad, Konkan, Vidarbha, Marathwada, and Central Maharashtra. Cloudy skies are expected in Mumbai and surrounding suburbs, with a possibility of light to moderate rain accompanied by thunderstorms.Light Showers Likely in Mumbai and RaigadMumbai and Raigad are likely to witness light rainfall today.

The early monsoon and favorable atmospheric conditions contributed to this unexpected rainfall surge.Looking ahead, the IMD has forecast 106% of the long-period average (LPA) rainfall for the June to September monsoon season in Maharashtra. This revised forecast comes after the earlier April estimate of 105% rainfall. The update reflects expectations of a robust monsoon season, not just in Maharashtra, but across most parts of India. With predictions of widespread and above-average rainfall, authorities and residents alike are preparing for a strong monsoon season that could boost agriculture but also demands preparedness for potential weather-related disruptions.
