188 districts (27%) of the nation saw inadequate rainfall (20–59%): IMD
India received 925 millimeters (mm) of rain
On the final day of the 2022 monsoon season, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) reported that rainfall was 6% over average from June 1 to September 30, 2022.
IMD statistics, however, revealed that 188 districts (27%) of the nation saw inadequate rainfall (20–59%), with seven districts experiencing particularly inadequate rainfall (60-99 percent).
IMD reports that during the monsoon season (June 1–September 30), India received 925 millimeters (mm) of rain. The average annual rainfall is 868.6. As a result, this season’s rainfall was 6.49 percent higher.
Rainfall in Northwest India was 1% higher than average (594.3 mm) (587.6 mm). However, there was an 18% decrease in rainfall in East and North East India. Rainfall there averages 1,367.3 mm per year. But this year, this area received 1,124.8 mm of rain.
On the other hand, there was an excess of 19% of rainfall in Central India. Rainfall above the 978 mm average this season by 161.1 mm.
Rainfall totals on the southern peninsula were 876.1 mm as opposed to 716.2 mm. In other words, there was 22% more rain here.
There was so much rain in a week in several districts that were in severe drought that the rainfall total has now returned to normal
Jharkhand, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Assam, Haryana, Delhi, and Punjab are among the states that had relatively little precipitation. Insufficient rainfall was recorded in 16 of 24 Jharkhand districts, 33 of 38 Bihar districts, 49 of 75 Uttar Pradesh districts, and 7 of 22 Punjab districts.
Heavy rains in the states other than Jharkhand and Bihar during the final week of September caused the figures to fluctuate dramatically.
There was so much rain in a week in several districts that were in severe drought that the rainfall total has now returned to normal.
More than 193% of the average rainfall fell in Uttar Pradesh between September 21 and September 28. Haryana gained 916 percent of the vote, followed by Punjab (350 percent), Himachal Pradesh (207%), Uttarakhand (222 percent), Rajasthan (190%), and Madhya Pradesh (83%).
According to data from June 1 to September 29, 2022, Haryana experienced 9% more rain than usual during the last week of September. Up until September 21, there had been 18% less rainfall than usual.
Up till September 21, 2022, Punjab had had a 21% reduction in rainfall compared to the typical. Due to the recent severe rains, the percentage was reduced to 6%.
53 districts in the state had rainfall totals that were below average.
Even after a particularly severe rainstorm in the final week of September, Uttar Pradesh still has a low rainfall level. 53 districts in the state had rainfall totals that were below average.
The last week of September saw the most rainfall in Etah. In one week, the district saw an excess rainfall of 31.48 percent. In June, there was absolutely no rain in the same district.
The amount of rain that fell over the past week accounted for 39% of the total for the previous four months. In the final week of September, rainfall in a few districts exceeded 1,000%.
However, according to the IMD, rain will continue even after the monsoon. October is expected to see more rain than usual nationwide on average (115 percent). Compared to the long-term period between October and December, Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, coastal Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, and Karnataka are anticipated to see 112% higher rainfall than average.
Only portions of North East India and the northwest of India are anticipated to get below-average rainfall.
