March 2023 has been mild for most parts in #India due to multiple deep penetrating upper-air troughs/western disturbances, which caused excess precipitation in most subdivisions.

The IMD's temperature forecast for March couldn't capture this cooling in many parts of India.

The updated temperature outlook for April and April to June (seasonal) suggests above normal maximum temperatures in many parts of India. However, the probability of it over many regions is low, indicating that this summer may not be that intense for many.

Parts of #India witnessed high temperatures and heatwaves in February. What does it mean for the rest of the spring/summer season? Should India worry about heatwaves? I share my views in @dwnews.

How is climate change affecting western disturbances?
