The long-awaited monsoon is inching closer to Uttar Pradesh, bringing much-needed relief from the scorching summer heat. Over the past few days, pre-monsoon showers and pleasant winds have been sweeping across several regions of the state, offering temporary respite to residents. According to the latest forecast from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the arrival of the monsoon is imminent, with heavy rain alerts now issued for more than 50 districts.
Monsoon’s progress has been slightly delayed this year, as its pace slowed while crossing Maharashtra. Initially expected to arrive earlier, the monsoon is now forecast to reach Uttar Pradesh after June 18, likely entering the state through the Gorakhpur region.
Heavy Rain Forecast from June 18 to 22
The IMD has predicted intense rainfall activity across Uttar Pradesh between June 18 and June 22. Once the monsoon makes its official entry, widespread showers are expected to cover large parts of the state, transforming the weather and easing prolonged heatwave conditions.

The IMD has issued heavy rain alerts for the following districts:
Kanpur, Unnao, Kasganj, Bareilly, Pilibhit, Lakhimpur Kheri, Mainpuri, Firozabad
Etah, Ambedkar Nagar, Sultanganj, Bihar region

Stay updated with official weather bulletins from the IMD

Farmers are also encouraged to monitor the rainfall to optimize agricultural planning
