IMD predicts severe winter after surplus rain
The New Indian Express|October 02, 2024
AFTER extreme summer heat and above-normal southwest monsoonal rainfall, get ready for a severe winter and longer spell of cold wave this winter.
JITENDRA CHOUBEY

The India Meteorological Department has predicted a higher possibility of drop in minimum temperatures in November-December due to the emergence of La Nina phenomenon.

Typically occurring towards the end of the monsoon season, La Nina, the cooler counterpart to El Nino, is characterised by lower sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific sea, bringing a sharp drop in temperatures, often coupled with increased rainfall, raising concerns about the possibility of an extreme winter ahead. However, La Nina prediction during monsoon proved wrong.

The IMD also predicted above-normal average rainfall over south peninsular India, many areas of central India and northeast India during the post-monsoon season (October-December). The average rainfall is most likely to be above normal i.e. more than 112% of Long Period Average.

FILMMAKING OVERTAKES STORYTELLING IN THIS MOSTLY EFFECTIVE PRISON DRAMA

We are often told that hell is for sinners and heaven is for the morally upright. In Sidharth Vishwanath's metaphorically rich Sorgavaasal, we are shown how the prison, which operates much like hell, is a place where sinners rule, and more often than not, the innocent are condemned to either rot or turn sinners themselves.
