In a significant development, the monsoon has advanced further across northern India, bringing a wave of relief to Chandigarh residents. The city is likely to witness moderate to heavy rainfall today, as the weather department predicts that the monsoon will make its presence felt with showers throughout the day. The arrival of the monsoon has been welcomed by many, especially after the recent dry spell, with temperatures expected to drop as a result of the rains.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather advisory, cautioning the public about the possibility of intermittent downpours in the coming hours. As the monsoon clouds move across the region, residents can expect cooler weather conditions, along with the likelihood of waterlogging in low-lying areas. The news of the monsoon’s progression has prompted people to prepare for the wet conditions, with an increase in the number of umbrellas and raincoats spotted across the city. This early monsoon burst could also aid in alleviating water shortages and support the city’s agricultural activities.
