Weather Update: IMD predicts fresh spell of heavy rainfall over south India; Delhi likely to experience misty mornings – Check forecast

South Peninsular India is bracing for another round of heavy rainfall, with the India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicting a fresh spell of showers on October 29-30. The region has already witnessed the onset of the Northeast Monsoon, which began on October 21 bringing some relief from the scorching heat.

The IMD’s weather forecast indicates that rainfall activity in South Peninsular India and northwest India (excluding Uttar Pradesh) is expected to be normal to above normal during the next week. Conversely, the rest of the country is likely to experience below-normal rainfall during this period.

Isolated heavy rainfall is likely over Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, Karaikal, South Interior Karnataka, Kerala, and Mahe during the same period. This weather pattern is indicative of the active Northeast Monsoon, which brings much-needed moisture to the region.

For Andaman & Nicobar Islands, light to moderate rainfall is expected at many places throughout the next week.
