The scientific community is observing a concerning trend where these extreme hot-and-dry monsoon conditions are becoming more frequent. This increase is directly linked to the broader issue of global warming. Even in years that are generally considered to have sufficient rainfall, the intensification of these dry spells and heatwaves can severely strain agricultural output and deplete vital water resources. The dynamic nature of these weather swings means that preparedness and response strategies must be agile and adaptable to rapidly changing conditions.
