Mrityunjay Mahapatra, the Director General of the IMD, emphasized that this timing is not unusually early, as it falls within the normal range.
The South-West Monsoon is projected to reach Kerala around May 31, which will serve as a benchmark for determining its progression to other states. This event marks the commencement of a crucial four-month rainy season vital for India's agriculture-driven economy. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted the arrival of the south-west monsoon in Kerala will be on May 31, with a potential deviation of up to four days either earlier or later.

Traditionally, the monsoon graces the Andaman and Nicobar Islands by May 22. Following this, it progresses towards Kerala. In terms of its regular schedule, the monsoon typically makes its way to Maharashtra by June 10.
