Latest Weather Report: Heavy Rainfall in these Southern and North-Eastern States; North to Remain Dry

Starting with Northern India, a cyclonic circulation is lying over eastern parts of Jammu & Kashmir and another circulation is over Central Pakistan.

On the other hand, weather in Delhi, Punjab and Haryana will remain dry.

Coming towards, East or Northeast India, a cyclonic circulation can be seen over Sub-Himalayan West Bengal & Sikkim. Also a trough is extending from this circulation to Andhra Pradesh across Odisha and West Bengal. Therefore moderate to heavy rainfall is expected over Sub-Himalayan Sikkim and West Bengal.

Meghalaya, Assam, West Nagaland, Mizoram, Manipur and Tripura will also experience a wet day. In the meantime, light rains are also expected over Jharkhand and Northeast Bihar.
