    Welcome news : Early Arrival of Monsoon

    New Delhi, Jun 26: Moving at a brisk pace, the Southwest Monsoon on Friday covered the entire length and breadth of the country, way ahead of schedule in a year in which there is a deficit rainfall forecast for India."The Southwest Monsoon has further advanced into remaining parts of West Rajasthan. Thus, it has covered the entire country today, June 26, 2015," the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said in its bulletin. The normal date for the monsoon to cover entire India is July 15."The Southwest Monsoon has covered the entire country. Even the last post of West Rajasthan has been covered entirely. "In fact, monsoon onset over the region usually happens around July 15, but some good rains in the last 24 hours has led to the declaration of monsoon over West Rajasthan," added Skymet, a private forecasting agency.The monsoon made a late entry this year as it hit the Kerala coast on June 5 -- a delay of four days from its normal onset date.
