New Delhi: The southwest monsoon has set in over Kerala and conditions are becoming favourable for further advance into some more parts of south Arabian Sea, Maldives-Comorin area, southwest and southeast Bay of Bengal during the next 24 hours, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said on Monday.
“The southwest monsoon has made an onset over Kerala,” IMD director general Mrutyunjay Mohapatra confirmed.
This marks the commencement of the four-month long rainfall season.
On Saturday, the IMD had reiterated that the monsoon would arrive in Kerala only around June 1 after private weather forecaster Skymet Weather announced it had already arrived in the state earlier than expected.
