The town of Mawsynram (India) experiences roughly 11,873 millimetres of rainfall annually — approximately 11 times greater than Glasgow, and nearly 22 times higher than London.
This has been stated by the Mirror.
Roughly 10,000 sightseers frequent the area each year, with many opting for the monsoon period (June through September) to observe the intense deluges personally. The special aspect of Mawsynram’s rains lies in their duration. Once commenced, they might persist for days or even weeks. Venturing out during the most powerful showers is perilous.
The severe precipitation stems from geographical factors: the settlement sits at an elevation of approximately 1,400 meters above sea level, and humid air currents from the Bay of Bengal ascend and are hemmed in by the Khasi Mountains, yielding perfect circumstances for persistent rainfalls.
It had been earlier communicated that around 600 million individuals in South Asia face the prospect of losing access to water owing to the alarming depletion of the Ganges. The research indicated that the ongoing dry spell has evolved into the most widespread over the past 1300 years, and the river's volume has diminished by 76% in comparison to the 16th century.
