Northeast monsoon likely to set in around October 17 or 18: RMC
The Rajasthan Meteorological Centre (RMC) projects the Northeast monsoon to start around October 17 or 18. After October 16, temperatures across the state are expected to drop as moisture and cloud cover increase, signalling the monsoon’s arrival. Meteorologists advise residents to prepare for higher humidity and potential rainfall. The RMC will keep monitoring conditions to refine the exact onset date, and public advisories will be issued as the monsoon approaches.
