"September Rain May Make Up For Shortfall Of 'Driest' August": Official
India is likely to see the driest August since 1901, when the country began keeping weather records, but the monsoon is expected to recover significantly after September 4, a senior official has said. Speaking to NDTV, Dr M Ravichandran, Secretary, Ministry of Earth Sciences, said rainfall in August has been far below normal and the intensifying El Nino conditions played a big role in that.
