Forecast for the weather in Kanpur

BY A STAFF REPORTER: The west end of the monsoon is approaching toward Uttar Pradesh, which is changing the weather once more. Some relief may start to arrive for those who have been suffering from the oppressive heat since July 1 on Wednesday night. In the Kanpur division, there's a chance of sporadic drizzle or showers mixed with thunder and lightning. The temperature will drop around this time as well.
Due to the clouds' movement, people had to endure stifling heat, but starting on Wednesday, the clouds are expected to become thicker. This means that between July 20 and July 25, there is a chance of mild to moderate rain, strong gusts, and thunderstorms. With this, farmers will experience significant relief and be able to directly plant paddy and other crops. Only 62 percent of the 116.37 lakh hectares that are planted during the season have access to irrigation. Normally, the state gets 947.50 mm of rain per year on average, but this time it didn't. The requirement for a contingency plan arises in this circumstance. Crops with short growing seasons can be used by farmers. Don't plant until there is enough moisture available. If the crop has already been planted, sprinkle some water on it sometimes in the evening. Use nitrogen in paddy nursery along with 2% urea. Plant the crops in the pumpkin category along the bund boundaries.
