Rains taper slowly, hit north-east monsoon

Conditions are still to develop in the north-western region for the withdrawal of the southwest monsoon.

Visakhapatnam: Withdrawal of the south-west monsoon over AP may be delayed, which creates unfavourable conditions for the onset of the northwest rainfall season.

Conditions are still to develop in the north-western region for the withdrawal of the southwest monsoon.

IMD-Hyderabad chief Y.K. Reddy said the withdrawal of monsoon should commence from September 1 and be completed by October 15 over AP.

“It is very hard to predict the progress of monsoon and its withdrawal,” he said.

Skymet Weather Services chief meteorologist Mahesh Palawat said, “The rains could stop after a few days, which is very much required for the withdrawal of monsoon.”
