The IMD has predicted a second phase of "break monsoon" for several parts of India this week, attributing the weather phenomenon to the El Nino episode. The monsoon trough is expected to shift northward, resulting in subdued rainfall in Northwest and Peninsular India, it said. In contrast, heavy rainfall is anticipated in the Himalayan region, including Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, and north Bihar, as well as parts of Northeast India—prompting a high alert in these areas.
