1: Remnants of Cyclone Biparjoy still maintaining the intensity of a depression

2: SW Monsoon active over Northeastern states

3: SW Monsoon clouds over the Arabian Sea off the west coast, but no significant rain over the coast

4: Monsoon Thunderstorm and rainclouds over Chennai which gave heavy rain overnight (associated with an upper air circulation over southwest Bay of Bengal)

Mumbai: The wait for proper Monsoon rains continues. Monsoon onset with some heavy showers is likely by 25th-27th June. 

Rainfall over coastal Karnataka, Goa and south konkan may increase gradually from 23rd/24th June. 

मराठवाड्यात २८ ते ३० जूनपर्यंत मान्सूनचे आगमन होण्याची शक्यता आहे. या हंगामात 3 महिन्यांच्या पिकाची पेरणी करणे योग्य ठरू शकते.
