An east-west shear zone runs roughly along 11°N Lat. between 3.1 km & 5.8 km above mean sea level and an offshore trough at mean sea level runs from Karnataka coast to Lakshadweep-Maldives area, says the weather forecast reports. Under the influence of these systems, fairly widespread to very heavy rainfall is likely to lash over parts of south peninsular India during next 4-5 days.

Moreover, due to shift of trough northwards and convergence of strong southerly/south-westerly winds from the Bay of Bengal over northeast & adjoining east India, widespread rainfall with isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall is very likely to continue over northeast & adjoining east India during next 2-3 days. On the other hand, isolated extremely heavy rainfall is also likely over Sub-Himalayan West Bengal & Sikkim and Assam & Meghalaya during next 24 hours.
