Heavy rain is unlikely despite the revival of monsoon in the northwestern states of India. Bihar, Uttarakhand and Eastern UP may receive rain today
The depression that had formed over northwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining Odisha coast on Sunday evening is likely to move west-northwestwards across North Odisha and north Chhattisgarh. It intensified and crossed the Odisha coast near Chandbali early Monday morning and is likely to weaken gradually into a depression during the next 24hrs.
It will bring heavy rain in its track, covering several parts of central India and west coast, India Meteorological Department (IMD) has warned. Peninsular India is likely to get heavy rains during the next five days. Isolated heavy rain is likely over coastal & south interior Karnataka, Tamilnadu, Puducherry, Karaikal and Kerala while scattered rainfall activity is likely over Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.
Partial rain is expected in Delhi. However, heavy rain is unlikely despite the revival of monsoon in the northwestern states of India. Bihar, Uttarakhand and Eastern UP may receive rain today and also over north Konkan, north Madhya Maharashtra, Gujarat, east Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh during the next five days and over Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh and Odisha during the next five days.
Deep depression is an intense low-pressure system with wind speeds from 55 to 61kmph.
In association with the depression and its west-northwestward movement, lower level westerlies are likely to strengthen along the west coast during the next 4-5 days
Another low-pressure area is lying over southwest Rajasthan and the adjoining Gujarat region. The monsoon trough is lying south of its normal position. It is very likely to be south of its normal position during the next 3-4 days. In association with the depression and its west-northwestward movement, lower level westerlies are likely to strengthen along the west coast during the next 4-5 days, IMD further elaborated.
