IMD Forecasts Continued Heavy Rain Across Central, Coastal, and Northwest India
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts continued active monsoon conditions across India, with heavy rainfall expected in central states like Madhya Pradesh, coastal West Bengal, and northwest regions including Punjab. Madhya Pradesh faces an orange alert for very heavy rain in several districts, while West Bengal's coastal areas will see heavy showers until July 24. Punjab's monsoon deficit has decreased, with widespread rain predicted later this week. Multiple weather systems are contributing to the persistent rainfall across these regions.
