South Asia is expected to receive below average rainfall during the June–September 2026 southwest monsoon season.

According to a new seasonal forecast by the South Asian Climate Outlook Forum, a few parts of the north-western, north-eastern and southern region are likely to receive normal to above normal rainfall. Temperatures are also expected to be warmer than average.

The Southwest Monsoon season delivers 75-90% of the annual rainfall in most parts of South Asia, replenishing water resources like rivers, lakes, and groundwater. Less rainfall can trigger food insecurity among vulnerable populations while intense rain can cause flooding and loss of life.

Forecasts and #EarlyWarnings inform local authorities and help communities prepare, manage risks and protect their livelihoods.
