Delhi is poised to bid farewell to the monsoon in the coming days as the season of abundant rainfall draws to a close. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has observed dry northwesterly winds, signaling an end to this year's rainy spell.
According to Mahesh Palawat of Skymet, without significant moisture or rainfall forecasts, the conditions for monsoon withdrawal will likely be met by Thursday. This year, Delhi witnessed notable rainfall patterns, with a September total of 136.1 mm surpassing the normal 123.5 mm.
