Mumbai’s monsoon season started with a bang, but ever since, the rains seem to have vanished. The initial days of the monsoon brought heavy showers, raising hopes for a season of ample water supply and lush greenery. However, the subsequent few days have seen a surprising lull, with the city experiencing an unusual dry spell.
Meteorologists are attributing this abrupt change to shifting weather patterns. Experts from IMD stations in Mumbai suggest that variations in the Arabian Sea’s temperature and atmospheric conditions might be one reason for disappearing rains and weak monsoon currents lately.
