IMD predicts Southwest monsoon to reach South Andaman Sea by May.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicts the Southwest monsoon will reach the South Andaman Sea and neighboring areas by May 19, ahead of the normal onset date of May 22. This on-time arrival could contribute to the timely monsoon over Southeast Bay of Bengal. The IMD has previously forecast an above-normal monsoon with 106% of the long-period average (LPA) rainfall between June and September.
