Monsoon rains spread to new territories in east, central and west India, making Monday the wettest day of the season so far and pushing the season's rain tally to 21% above normal - a jump of five percentage points in a single day.
There is more in store as two rain-bearing systems are headed to meet over northwest India and bring a wave of wet weather into the region in a couple of days. The Met department said this would hasten the monsoon's arrival into north India, including the national capital region, during the course of this week.
But Met experts said while this week promises to be rain-packed, the monsoon is likely to weaken thereafter.
