Western Disturbances and Their Growing Impact on India
Why in News?
In early 2025, India saw a surge in extreme weather events due to more frequent and intense Western Disturbances. Reports by IMD and the Weather and Climate Dynamics Journal (2024) highlight their extended seasonality and overlap with monsoon periods, leading to flash floods, hailstorms, and unseasonal rainfall.
