Why is the rain disappearing? Effect of El Nino changed the course of monsoon, meteorologists gave big information
New Delhi: This time the mood of monsoon seems to be changing continuously in many parts of the country. In some places, record rainfall is occurring within a few hours, while in many areas clouds are visible for several days, but it is not raining. This unusual behavior of the weather has increased the concern of the farmers the most, because a large part of farming is still dependent on rain. Meteorologists believe that El Nino active in the Pacific Ocean could be the main reason behind this irregularity of monsoon.
According to experts, when El Nino is active, its effect is visible on the weather of many countries of the world. It may also affect the movement of monsoon in India. At such times, rainfall does not occur evenly throughout the season, rather its pattern changes. This is the reason why some areas receive heavy rainfall in a short period of time, while other areas do not receive rain for a long time. This creates imbalance in the weather and people have to face suddenly changing conditions.
Monsoon remains active in patches
Meteorologists say that in El Nino years, the monsoon works in different phases instead of being continuously active. Sometimes it rains heavily for a few days and after that there is almost a drought-like situation for several days. Such fluctuations affect farming, water storage and daily life. In areas where there is excessive rainfall, problems like waterlogging and floods can arise, whereas in areas where there is less rainfall, there is lack of moisture in the fields.
Challenges increased before farmers
The uncertainty of rain affects farmers the most. Due to lack of timely rain, sowing, irrigation and initial growth of crops can be affected. At the same time, sudden excessive rain can also damage the crops standing in the fields. Many farmers are now waiting for the next active monsoon phase so that their crops can get adequate water. This weather condition also makes planning agricultural operations difficult.
Expectation of relief at the end of July
According to meteorologists, there may be fluctuations in monsoon activities at present. However, they are hopeful that the monsoon will become active again in the last days of July and many areas may see good rains. If this happens, there is a possibility of relief to farmers and water sources will also improve. However, in view of the changing weather conditions, farmers and common people are being advised to keep a constant eye on the latest information from the Meteorological Department.
Experts believe that weather conditions can change every few days. Therefore, to understand the probability of rain and its impact in any area, it is important to pay attention to the official weather forecast. At present, people’s eyes are fixed on the sky in many parts of the country and everyone is hopeful that the monsoon will soon pick up pace again, which will provide relief to both agriculture and water resources.
