El Nino Is Brewing Again: Should India Brace For A Deficient Monsoon In 2026? | India News

Published by Webster

Last Updated:March 13, 2026, 17:35 IST What is worrying meteorologists is not just the possibility of El Nino itself, but how strong it could become. El Nino occurs when surface waters in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean warm unusually (PTI) Scientists are increasingly seeing early signals that El Nino conditions could develop in 2026, and possibly strengthen as the year progresses.

Forecasts from global weather agencies indicate roughly a 60 per cent chance of El Nino emerging between June and August, with the probability rising further toward the latter half of the year. What is worrying meteorologists is not just the possibility of El Nino itself, but how strong it could become. India is already seeing an intense summer. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) and international climate centres are closely monitoring the Pacific because some model projections indicate the event …

Temperatures were 8 to 13 degrees Celsius above normal, which can be classified as heat-wave conditions.

A warmer March In its March forecast, the IMD said that day temperatures over western Himalayan regions and peninsular and central India would remain ‘above’ normal. It also warned of ‘above’ normal heatwave days in Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh. Both scenarios were realised within the very first week of March.

Summer over Shimla peaks in May and early June, but heatwaves are uncommon,” said an IMD official. A similar situation prevailed in Jammu …
