El Nino ends as La Nina looms, promising better monsoon in India

El Nino has ended after nearly a year, with US weather agencies reporting its dissipation and a likely transition to La Nina in the next two months. This shift is expected to enhance monsoon rainfall in India during August and September. The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) gives a 65% chance of La Nina developing between July and September, slightly delayed from earlier predictions but still potentially beneficial for the monsoon.
