Rajasthan experiences rainfall, relief from heat
Jaisalmer, Rajasthan just got its first taste of monsoon rain, finally giving locals a break from June's usual scorching temperatures (often up to 40°C). This change is a big deal for daily life, as the heat had made it tough to even step outside.
Meanwhile, rest of Northwest India is still hot
While Jaisalmer cools down, the rest of Northwest India is still stuck in a stubborn heat wave that isn't matching up with the monsoon's progress elsewhere. Keeping track of these weather shifts is important for planning your day.
Monsoon's next target will be Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Vidarbha
The southwest monsoon, which started in Kerala on May 24, is picking up pace again and should bring rain soon to Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh, and Odisha. The good news: Northwest India's heat wave should ease in a couple of days—so more regions can finally look forward to some much-needed rain.
