Monsoon covers entire country but may begin to weaken (17.June.2013) Source: Business Line The South-West monsoon has covered the entire country at least a fortnight ahead of schedule in what has been a spectacular and punishing opening spell. Progress of monsoon so far has been good but it may start weakening from July said a former Director General of the IMD. Meanwhile, Climate Prediction Centre of the US National Weather Services suspected that monsoon activity might start to weaken from next week. Rains may relapse to below ‘climatological mean’ (historical normal for a given period) towards end-June and into July.
