In the entire month of June 2024, a total of 91.2 mm of rain was recorded.
This year, this figure has almost been reached in just 15 days, indicating an active monsoon.
However, this figure is still behind the record of 2023.
During that time, there was heavy rain between June 1 and 16 due to Cyclone 'Biparjoy', but that was a cyclonic effect, not a normal monsoon.
Meteorological Department's Forecast
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued its forecast for the region.
According to the IMD, "The monsoon can arrive anytime between June 22 and 25 in the Chittorgarh and Mewar division."
This forecast has further raised the hopes of farmers who are preparing for sowing their crops.
If heavy rains continue with the arrival of the monsoon, a new rainfall record for the entire month of June could be set this time.
This pre-monsoon rain is not only providing relief from the heat but is also proving helpful in raising the water levels of reservoirs. This is expected to ensure the availability of water for drinking and irrigation in the coming time.
