Severe weather and non-timely action in re-routing the aircraft clear of weather were the probable causes that led to IndiGo's Delhi-Srinagar flight incident where the aircraft's nose radome was damaged on May 21, according to the probe findings by aviation regulator DGCA. On May 21, IndiGo's A321 neo aircraft VT-IMD while operating flight 6E-2142 from Delhi to Srinagar encountered severe weather, including hail, during cruise. After landing in Srinagar, the aircraft radome was found damaged, Minister of State for Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol told the Rajya Sabha on Monday.

On May 23, two days after the incident, DGCA had said IndiGo flight crew initially attempted to return but as they were close to the thunderstorm cloud, they decided to penetrate the weather. Live Events "Subsequently, they encountered hailstorm and severe turbulence. Crew chose to continue at the same heading to exit the weather by the shortest route towards Srinagar," it had said in a statement. While in a thunderstorm cloud, the regulator had said warnings of Angle of Attack fault, Alternate Law protection lost, backup Speed scale unreliable were triggered. "Due to updraft and downdraft encountered by the aircraft the Autopilot tripped and aircraft speed had wide variations. As a result, Maximum Operating Speed/Maximum operating Mach (VMO/MMO) warnings and repeated stall warnings were triggered," it had said. On May 21, the flight crew had sought permission to enter Pakistan airspace to avoid turbulence but the request was rejected.

India sees normal monsoon rainfall; some states drenched, others parched
India has recorded normal rainfall so far this monsoon season, but the distribution is highly uneven across states, the latest state-wise compilation by the India Meteorological Department ( IMD ) shows. Between June 1 and August 10, the country recorded 539 mm of rain against a normal of 535.6 mm, about 1% above the long-period average.

Arunachal Pradesh , Assam, Meghalaya, Sikkim and Bihar have recorded seasonal shortfalls. Live Events Arunachal Pradesh gauged 652.1 mm against a normal of 1,081.0 mm (about 40 per cent below normal), Assam 603.8 mm (37 per cent below normal), Meghalaya 978.7 mm (45 per cent below normal), Sikkim 837.4 mm (20 per cent below normal) and Bihar 438.3 mm (25 per cent below). Five states or union territories are in the excess category -- Jharkhand (853.7 mm; 41 per cent above normal), Delhi (433.5 mm; 37 per cent above), Rajasthan (430.6 mm; 58 per cent above), Madhya Pradesh (745.3 mm; 30 per cent above) and Puducherry (258.2 mm; 32% above). Ladakh stands out in the large-excess column with 31.8 mm against a normal of 14.8 mm (about 115% above normal). Twenty-five states and union territories, spanning north, central, east and south India , recorded seasonal totals within ±19% of the long-period average. This group includes Uttar Pradesh (478.0 mm; 11 per cent above normal), Maharashtra (585.2 mm; about 9 per cent below normal but within the normal band) and Karnataka (587.8 mm; 10 per cent above normal). While the cumulative picture shows the country close to normal, the season has been marked by sharp spatial and temporal variability. Parts of the western Himalayas, especially Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, have seen cloudbursts, flash floods and widespread landslides in July and early August, disrupting roads and local life. The national capital region also faced episodes of heavy downpour and waterlogging in late July and early August. The IMD has noted the unevenness of rainfall so far and expects the second half of the monsoon (August-September) to be generally wetter, with above-normal rainfall likely over the country as a whole. However, some pockets, including parts of the northeast and adjoining eastern India, are expected to remain on the drier side. The IMD has also said that northeast India has experienced below-normal rainfall for several consecutive years and warned of continuing regional differences in rainfall activity. In May, the IMD predicted that India would receive 106 per cent of the long-period average rainfall of 87 cm during the June-September monsoon season. Rainfall ranging between 96 and 104 per cent of this 50-year average is considered "normal". The monsoon plays a critical role in India's agriculture sector, which supports the livelihood of around 42 per cent of the population and contributes 18.2% to the national GDP . It is also crucial for replenishing reservoirs used for drinking water and power generation.

Canada hit by worst wildfire season in 40 years, Moncton among affected areas
Canada is facing one of its most severe wildfire seasons, with a rapidly spreading fire north of Moncton prompting officials to urge residents in the rural community of Maple Hills to prepare for a potential evacuation, although no order has yet been issued. The blaze, burning near Irishtown Nature Park, has grown to 30 hectares as of Sunday evening(August 10), according to New Brunswick's wildfire data dashboard. The Municipality of Maple Hills is asking residents between Cape Breton Road, Weisner Road, Elmwood Drive, and Roma Way to have belongings and pets ready in case evacuation becomes necessary.

Lulutox Undo Residents are closely watching the situation. Moncton Firefighters Association urged the public to avoid the affected area to allow emergency crews safe access for fire and water shuttle operations. Meanwhile, the City of Moncton has issued a boil-water advisory for parts of Elmwood Drive and nearby areas due to elevated turbidity in water caused by fire-fighting efforts. Residents are advised to boil water for drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth until further notice. Live Events The Oldfield Road wildfire near Miramichi continues to rage, now covering approximately 340 hectares. Authorities have issued evacuation orders for three homes and a cottage, while 15 other properties remain on alert. No residents were home when the evacuation was ordered. The fire has jumped Highway 8 and remains out of control, with reduced visibility hampering containment efforts. New Brunswick Natural Resources Minister John Herron described the Oldfield Road fire as 'beyond control' during a Saturday briefing, emphasizing that extreme fire conditions are overwhelming firefighting resources. The province has banned access to all Crown land to reduce fire risks, restricting outdoor activities such as fishing, camping, hiking, and driving in forested areas. In York County, a smaller fire near Canterbury, which spanned about five hectares, was brought under control Sunday afternoon. Officials warn that this wildfire season is unusually severe, with conditions not seen in nearly four decades due to prolonged dry weather.
