The monsoon season in India is entering its transitional phase, but satellite imagery confirms that the atmospheric system remains highly active.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), heavy rainfall and thunderstorms are expected to persist across northern, eastern, and central parts of the country until mid-September.

Impact & Risks

The ongoing heavy rainfall poses risks of localised flooding, waterlogging, and disruptions in daily life across affected regions, including Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and West Bengal. Thunderstorm activity and lightning strikes are expected in Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, and Tamil Nadu, increasing the risk of injuries and property damage. Coastal areas in the south, such as Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Mahe, will experience hot and humid conditions, which may lead to discomfort and heat-related health issues.
