Heavy rains continue to devastate Uttarakhand&nbsp;where atleast&nbsp;23 people have died this month. Downpour is being seen across India despite of the monsoon being officially over causing massive floods and landslides. The reason for this continuous rainfall&nbsp;is the development of low pressure which is causing the 'monsoon's to still continue. But this time its not just the low-pressure but climate change. Climate change is adding to the rise in&nbsp; frequency in extreme weather conditions.
