Why The Monsoon Hits Different?
The monsoon this year is exceptionally strong and unpredictable for a number of reasons. Experts blame the change on changes in monsoon patterns brought about by climate change, which has increased rainfall in normally desert areas like Gujarat and Rajasthan.
This monsoon is the wettest in more than ten years because to the persistent clash of monsoon currents in northern India with Western Disturbances, which has significantly increased rainfall. Additionally, a warmer atmosphere has the capacity to retain more moisture, which results in more frequent and powerful cloudbursts but fewer rainy days.
