According to the report, the rains will be accompanied by gusty winds reaching speeds of 40–50 kmph. The persistent gloomy weather is attributed to prevailing monsoon systems over the Indian subcontinent.
At present, a monsoon trough at mean sea level extends from Sri Ganganagar in Rajasthan to the northeast Bay of Bengal, passing through several key cities including Bhiwani, Agra, Banda, Dehri, Purulia, and Kolkata. In addition, an offshore trough is currently active from south Gujarat to the Karnataka coast.

While the monsoon season had promised above-average rainfall for the city, June ended with a shortfall. The deficit, officials said, was largely due to the unusually heavy pre-monsoon showers in May, which disrupted the early momentum of the monsoon.
Despite the slow start, meteorologists remain optimistic that July could bring more consistent rains to the region as monsoon systems strengthen along the western coast.
