This was the heaviest monsoon recorded in the country in 25 years. The floods resulted in a death toll of 1,600 people between June and October 2019, and displacement of about a million people. The states of Karnataka and Maharashtra were the most severely affected.

The situation in the nine states was as follows:

Andhra Pradesh: Over 74,000 people in the coastal districts of East Godavari and West Godavari were affected due to flooding from the Godavari river. A total of 17,632 people has been evacuated and moved to relief camps due to heavy discharge of floodwater from the upstream reservoirs of the Krishna river basin. The situation worsened on 15 August 2019, after water was released from the Prakasam Barrage in Vijayawada in Andhra Pradesh. Dam authorities in the states of Maharashtra and Karnataka were forced to open sluice gates due to incessant rains, resulting in flooding downstream along the Krishna river.
