According to the india Meteorological Department (IMD), telangana will get additional rain in october as the southwest monsoon over the state is not expected to depart until the third week. According to IMD, the pullout would be postponed because the monsoon's arrival was 10 days later than expected. The monsoon retreat was postponed by about two weeks last year as well.
The low pressure system that formed on friday over the northwest Bay of bengal, together with a cyclonic circulation that extended up to 7.6 km above mean sea level, was blamed for the current weather conditions. Within the following 24 hours, it is predicted to travel across north odisha and neighbouring West bengal in a west-northwesterly direction.
Meanwhile, despite the late onset, telangana recorded a normal monsoon this year. The cumulative rainfall of the state at the end of southwest monsoon (June 1 - september 30) is 861.1 mm against normal 738.6 mm with 17% deviation. According to telangana State Development Planning Society, this is the fifth consecutive year where southwest monsoon has shown above normal rainfall with 2019 recording 10% deviation, 2020 (50%), 2021 (40%) and 2022 with 39%
