IMD forecasts delay in monsoon retreat
The monsoon withdrawal from northwest India is expected to be delayed due to a low pressure system forming over the Bay of Bengal. Meteorological experts predict that the monsoon may be delayed by nearly a week, with rainfall activity continuing over central and northwest India. This delay in monsoon withdrawal could help improve the current rain deficiency by the end of the season. The monsoon typically begins to withdraw from western Rajasthan on September 17, but this year it is expected to be delayed.

Monsoon revival in Maha from Sept 15, forecasts IMD
The monsoon is expected to revive in Maharashtra from September 15 due to a low-pressure area forming over the Bay of Bengal. The India Meteorological Department has predicted that the system will strengthen and move west-northwestwards across Odisha and Andhra Pradesh coast. This is good news for Maharashtra, which has experienced a bad monsoon season. Farmers and Pune city are likely to benefit from the expected rain. There may also be an increase in rainfall in Vidarbha and other parts of Maharashtra. However, widespread heavy rainfall is unlikely. Another weak low-pressure system may form around September 21, but this is expected to be the last monsoon system of the season.
