Every monsoon, Indian farmers plant crops, hoping for a balanced season. As a result, 2023 has seen massive changes in the weather, with droughts in some places and floods in others.

Rising temperatures will be another big issue for farmers in 2023. Droughts and flash floods have been exacerbated by higher temperatures and less rainfall. Heat-stressed crops, resulting in crop failures and yield losses. There is a harvest loss due to unseasonal rains and hailstorms in the Marathwada district and north Maharashtra.

In 2023, Maharashtra also had the highest temperature increase. Temperatures rose 2.9 degrees Celsius in the state. The rise in temperature hurt the state's crop yield, putting farmers under financial strain.

Crops like cotton, and sugarcane, were also impacted by extreme weather patterns in 2023. Farmers will benefit from policies that mitigate the impact of climate change and help them adapt to changing weather patterns and better weather predictions.

The weather in March 2023 has made headlines, from unusually cold temperatures to devastating heat waves and now intense rain and hail. Why are these unprecedented changes taking place?

India's unusual weather is primarily a result of climate change. The effects of climate change are becoming increasingly evident as global temperatures reach record highs year after year. Climate change contributes to extreme weather conditions such as intense heatwaves, droughts, heavy rainfall, and flooding.

There are particular concerns about the changes in March 2023 in India, due to the rise in temperatures due to climate change. It is increasingly likely that India will experience these episodes of extreme heat more frequently in the future, especially during the summer months.

Global warming isn't the only problem in India - urbanization and industrialization are also contributing. There's been a change in weather patterns in some parts of the country due to pollution. Some Indian cities have been found to have higher temperatures because of smog.

Climate change, urbanization, and pollution are all contributing to the alarming changes in weather in March 2023. Taking immediate steps to reduce the country's contribution to global warming is essential. In the absence of action, weather patterns will continue to worsen and change.

More rains are coming up for all three states of East India including Jharkhand, West Bengal, and Bihar. The reason for these activities is multiple systems including the Western Disturbance over the hills and a couple of Circulations.

Another reason is that for East India, moisture is always pumped from the Bay of Bengal as an anti-cyclone is semi-permanently stationed over Head Bay and is fuelling southwesterly moist winds over these areas.

For these areas, rains will be light to moderate on March 17. Intense rains may be seen on March 18, 19, and 20, some parts may see heavier showers with rains being between moderate to heavy. March 21 will see a reduction in rainfall while clearance may be seen starting March 22.
