Weather News : अल नीनो की हुई वापसी, भारत में सूखा और रिकॉर्ड तोड़ गर्मी की आहट | Monsoon | IMD While March 2026 saw a mix of winter, summer, and monsoon conditions all within a single month, April brought scorching heat that wreaked havoc on the population. Intense hot winds left people distressed throughout May. Now, with the monsoon arriving in Kerala in June, some states in South India have found relief from the heat. However, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has issued an alert. According to the WMO, the El Niño effect is becoming active in the Pacific Ocean, causing sea surface temperatures to rise—potentially by 0.5 to 2 degrees Celsius above normal. This phenomenon is expected to have a significant impact on India. Severe heat conditions are anticipated through May, June, and July. Additionally, an unexpected deficit in monsoon rainfall is likely. Day and night temperatures are expected to remain above normal throughout the monsoon season. Furthermore, reduced rainfall could lead to drought-like conditions during August and September. The United Nations (UN) has also expressed concern regarding the activation of the El Niño effect, highlighting the likelihood of rising global temperatures and significant impacts on rainfall patterns worldwide. The UN has urged all nations to strengthen early warning systems to ensure preparedness for potential risks. What is the El Niño effect, and how will it impact India? El Niño is a natural climate phenomenon characterized by the warming of surface waters in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean to temperatures above normal levels. This disrupts global atmospheric pressure patterns, thereby weakening the monsoon winds that reach India. Essentially, El Niño acts in opposition to the Indian monsoon; the warming of Pacific waters weakens the moisture-laden winds that would otherwise flow towards India. #Weather #WeatherUpdate #TopNews #Imd #Monsson
