IMD Weather LIVE Updates: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted extensive rainfall, thunderstorms, and strong winds affecting various regions of India beginning May 25 and lasting until the month's end. States in the southern, western, northeastern, eastern, and central parts of the country are likely to experience moderate to heavy rainfall, with certain areas facing very heavy to extremely heavy downpours.
