Barring eastern India, most parts of the country will witness either rain or snow this month due to two western disturbances and a trough, private weather forecasting agency Skymet has said.
Expectations of a bumper monsoon need to be reined as a recent weakness could result in rainfalls closing the season in the normal zone rather than above-par, Jatin Singh, CEO of private forecaster Skymet says.
The Meteorological Department has predicted that monsoon will remain below normal this year but private weather forecaster, Skymet, remains upbeat showering in some blessed news.
In an interview to CNBC-TV18, Jatin Singh chief executive officer, Skymet, says the private forecaster has no data to downgrade its monsoon forecast yet.
Jatin Singh of Skymet says the worst of the heat wave in India is almost over.
Skymet forecasts monsoon at 102 percent with a long-period average (LPA) of 887 mm for June to September period.
