World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has projected that the La Niña:

The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) has projected that the La Niña weather phenomenon may return between September and November 2025.La Niña is a natural climate phenomenon that occurs when the surface waters of the central and eastern Pacific Ocean become unusually cold due to stronger-than-normal trade winds pushing warm water towards the Western Pacific (near Asia and Australia). It is opposite to El Niño, which is characterized by unusually warm sea surface temperatures in the same region.La Niña boosts southwest monsoon rainfall, benefiting Kharif crops and replenishing rivers, lakes, and groundwater. However, excessive or uneven rain can cause flooding and waterlogging in low-lying regions like Assam and Bihar. It also often brings colder-than-normal winters to northern states such as Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh.
