The monsoon's withdrawal from Uttarakhand is still far away. Normally, it withdraws by the end of September, but this year, it has been raining continuously. Due to this year's higher-than-normal rainfall, people are eagerly awaiting its withdrawal. The Meteorological Department has not yet announced a date for the monsoon's withdrawal.
The Meteorological Department has reported that a new low-pressure area is likely to form in the Bay of Bengal near the Myanmar and Bangladesh coasts around September 25th.
