Normally South-West Monsoon covers Maharashtra by 12 June.. But this year officially, we yet to see onset over the state so this has lead to deficit climb till negative 71%
Above map depicts Maharashtra conditions (district wise) till date.. Most are under large deficit
Maharashtra as whole map above
This maps depicts overall country situation which is on negative 43%
So due to non advance of SWM in Maharashtra and very less pre monsoon rains, Kharif sowing over large parts of state mainly in Marathwada & Vidarbha has been halted as yet!
Total Maharashtra State (All Dams) has just 6.29% live storage as on today !! Same day last year till today we had 18.98% storage ! So it shows how less water we have for current year due to bad monsoon in last Aug-Sep 2018.

Aurangabad 0.5% (15.66%)
Nashik 4.85% (14.43%)

Pune 5.85% (18.87%)
Amravati 6.08% (11.8%)
Kokan 24.53% (33.68%)
From above we can get to know how Aurangabad division is worst hit with hardly any storage available in dams !
