The monsoon has made significant progress in Odisha, with the Southwest monsoon now covering 24 out of the 30 districts in the state. This update comes from sources at the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) based in Bhubaneswar. According to the IMD, the conditions are favorable for the monsoon to continue its advance to other parts of Odisha in the next few days.
In their latest prediction, the IMD has forecasted light to moderate rain and thundershowers in most areas across the districts of Odisha. However, they have also warned of heavy to very heavy rainfall in a few places. These include the districts of Rayagada and Kandhamal, where heavy downpours are expected, and Gajapati, Khurda, Kalahandi, Mayurbhanj, Keonjhar, Nayagarh, and Ganjam, where rainfall is expected to be slightly less intense.
Manorama Mohanty, the Director of the Meteorological Centre in Bhubaneswar, has also shared her insights on the situation. She predicts that Odisha may experience isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall on June 21 and 22. Additionally, there is a possibility of widespread light to moderate rainfall accompanied by thunderstorms, lightning, and strong winds over the next five days in the state.
Overall, it seems like the monsoon has made its presence known in Odisha, bringing much-needed relief from the scorching summer heat. However, with the possibility of heavy rainfall, it is essential for the people of Odisha to stay cautious and be prepared for any potential impact. Let's hope that the monsoon continues to bring much-needed rain to the rest of the state in the coming days.
