The monsoon arrived early in Maharashtra and Gujarat, with Mumbai experiencing heavy rains on Sunday, two days ahead of schedule. Favorable conditions along the coast led to waterlogging and traffic disruptions in several Mumbai areas. Meanwhile, northern India, including Delhi, Punjab, and Jharkhand, continues to endure intense heatwaves. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts the monsoon will reach Delhi by June 27, bringing relief from the ongoing heatwave that is expected to last until June 18. Southern India saw an early and surplus rainfall, contrasting with a significant deficit in the northwest.
