The Meteorological Department reported a significant 1.37°C temperature increase in Northwest India this November, with similar trends in Central and South India

Meteorologists believe the lack of sufficient western disturbances and cyclones contributed to the increased November temperatures

Northwest India received an average of 2.4 mm of rainfall, 79.9% below normal. South India faced a 37.9% deficit

IMD Director Mrityunjay Mohapatra stated that western disturbances passed at higher latitudes in Jammu & Kashmir, resulting in less rainfall in North and Northwest India. One of the two cyclones was weak, reducing rainfall in South India

India, being in the Northern Hemisphere, usually experiences the onset of winter in November. However, this year, the heat continued into December
