Monsoon slowdown likely to widen UP’s rain deficit

The IMD expects the monsoon current to weaken further over the next few days, which could widen the rainfall deficit and push up temperatures, a weatherman said on Sunday. Between 8.30 am on Saturday and 8.30 am on Sunday, 40 of Uttar Pradesh’s 75 districts received no rainfall. The state recorded an average of 7.5 mm, with East UP receiving 11.7 mm and West UP just 1.4 mm.
