Southwest Monsoon has started its advancement process once again and has entered the Gujarat region. However, as Delhi lies over the northern parts, Monsoon arrives only during June end.

As per weathermen at Skymet Weather, isolated thunderstorm activity is expected to commence over Delhi and the NCR region around June 26. However, for the next 24 hours, heatwave like conditions will persist. Thereafter, easterly winds will start moving towards Delhi and NCR along with the Northern Plains leading to the commencement of Pre-Monsoon activities around June 27.

Gradually, these Pre-Monsoon activities will start increasing. Thus, on and off rains will continue for some time. The normal date of arrival of monsoon over Delhi is around June 29 and we expect timely onset of monsoon over Delhi with an error margin of +/-2 days.

Rains are expected to increase further, and we expect good rains around June 30 and 31st. In fact, the month of July is also expected to begin on a rainy note. In a nutshell, by the end of the month good rains will commence over Delhi and NCR leading to significant drop in temperatures as well.

The maximums are expected to drop down to around 35 and 36 degrees Celsius which at present are settling between 43 and 45 degrees.

Thus, significant relief is expected in coming days as Southwest Monsoon will also make an onset over Delhi and NCR.
