Skymet Weather predicts an "average" monsoon for India, transitioning from El Nino to La Nina conditions. The shift may result in a slow start to summer rains, followed by heavier spells later. Uneven rainfall distribution is anticipated, impacting agriculture and the economy. Last year's below-normal forecast proved correct. While South, West, and Northwest regions expect good rains, Bihar and Odisha may face shortages. The Indian Meteorological Department's official forecast is due on April 15.
