Scientists Warn Strong El Nino Could Disrupt Monsoon Patterns Across The World This Year
Scientists also noted that weather conditions before the monsoon season can influence how El Nino affects rainfall.

Mumbai To Face 10% Water Cut From May 15 Amid Drop In Lake Levels
The BMC commissioner said that the civic body decided to impose a 10 per cent water cut from May 15 amid uncertainty over rains this year, with forecasts indicating below-normal monsoon due to the El Nino phenomenon.

Delhi Records 33.3 Degrees Celsius, Yellow Alert Issued For 2 Days
The change in weather conditions is attributed to shifting wind patterns and the influence of a western disturbance, which is likely to bring intermittent cloud cover and isolated rainfall over the national capital region.

How India's Heatwaves Are Changing: 5 Patterns Weather Data Is Revealing
Scientists say several factors - including warming temperatures, soil moisture loss and atmospheric circulation patterns - can contribute to prolonged heat episodes.

Scientists Reveal Why Jupiter and Saturn’s Polar Weather Looks So Different
Although Jupiter and Saturn are similar gas giants, their polar weather patterns are strikingly different. Saturn hosts a single, massive hexagonal storm at its north pole, while Jupiter features a central cyclone surrounded by smaller vortices. New simulations suggest the contrast may arise from differences deep inside the planets. A denser, “ha...

Scientists Stunned as Earth’s Magnetosphere Shows Reversed Electric Charge Patterns
Scientists have discovered that Earth’s morning-side magnetosphere is negatively charged, overturning decades of assumptions about space electricity. Satellite data and simulations show the charge pattern flips near the equator but remains traditional at the poles. The breakthrough reshapes understanding of space weather and may also clarify elec...

How Climate Change And Warming Oceans Led To Kolkata's Historic Downpour
As Kolkata begins to mop up after one of its worst deluges in recent memory, scientists warn that such extreme weather events are no longer anomalies - they are becoming the new normal.

Global Weather Office Warns Of La Nina Conditions. What It Means For India
La Nina may return to impact weather and climate patterns from September onwards, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has said in a latest update.

10 Strange 'Dark Voids' Appear Over Remote Island Near Antarctica in Rare Satellite View
A rare NASA satellite image shows 10 sharply defined “dark voids” above Heard Island, a volcanic peak in the southern Indian Ocean. Formed by von Kármán vortices bent nearly 90 degrees by fierce westerly winds, the striking gaps pierce thick cloud cover, offering a vivid glimpse of nature’s intricate atmospheric patterns from space.

NSF’s DKIST Captures Sharpest-Ever Images of Fine Solar Magnetic Striations
Using the NSF’s Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope, scientists have captured the most detailed views of the Sun’s surface ever recorded. The new observations reveal ultra-narrow magnetic striations only 20 kilometers wide, etched into solar granules. These light and dark bands reflect subtle variations in magnetic field strength. Researchers say ...

A Summer That Isn't? Why 2025 Is Becoming Climate Case Study for India
A January that didn't feel like winter and a May that did not feel like summer - the year 2025 is emerging as a case study in understanding the impact of climate change in India.

Saudi Arabia's Mega-City Neom Could Change Weather Patterns, Warns Insider
Donald Wuebbles, a University of Illinois professor of atmospheric science, who serves as a paid adviser to Neom, issued the warning.

Arabia Had Five Times More Rainfall 400 Years Ago, Study Finds
Research reveals Arabia's climate was drastically wetter 400 years ago, resembling a savannah with thriving wildlife. Sediment cores from the Gulf of Aqaba confirm fluctuating rainfall patterns over centuries. Experts highlight the importance of climate resilience as urbanisation progresses. The study emphasises the need for better flood and drough...

Exoplanet WASP-121 b’s Atmosphere Features Iron Rains, Jet Streams, and More
Astronomers have uncovered extreme weather patterns on WASP-121 b, a gas giant 900 light-years from Earth. The planet experiences iron rain, with metals vaporizing on its scorching dayside and condensing into liquid at night. Supersonic winds carry elements across its atmosphere, forming powerful jet streams. Using the Very Large Telescope, researc...

Curiosity Rover Observes Iridescent Clouds on Mars, Offering New Insights
NASA’s Curiosity rover has captured rare iridescent clouds drifting across the Martian sky, observed at high altitudes in twilight conditions. These carbon dioxide ice clouds were seen forming between 60 and 80 kilometres above the surface before evaporating as they descended. Scientists believe their presence hints at unknown cooling mechanisms ...
