Heavy Rainfall Alert: A cyclonic circulation that was previously over south Chhattisgarh has now shifted to north Madhya Maharashtra and its surrounding regions, extending up to the middle tropospheric level. This weather system is also connected to a trough that runs from north Madhya Maharashtra to north Bangladesh, which is expected to influence weather patterns over the next few days. As a result, fairly widespread to widespread light to moderate rainfall is expected across Konkan & Goa throughout the week, and similar conditions will be seen over Madhya Maharashtra and Gujarat State for the next three days. Isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall is predicted over these areas, especially on September 27th, raising concerns for localized flooding and disruptions.
Heavy Rainfall Alert for East & Northeast India
Northeast India is set to experience consistent rainfall for the next seven days, with fairly widespread to widespread light to moderate showers expected. East India will also see similar weather patterns for the next two days, followed by isolated to scattered rain over the subsequent five days. The states of Sub-Himalayan West Bengal, Sikkim, and Bihar are likely to witness isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall on September 27th. Similar conditions are forecasted for Jharkhand, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, and Meghalaya at various intervals, potentially leading to waterlogging and travel disruptions.
Heavy Rainfall Alert: Rainfall Predictions for Central and Northwest India
