May 9, 2013 5:57 PM |

The low pressure area in the southeast Bay of Bengal may become a depression and then a deep-depression during the next two to three days. Strengthening of the deep-depression would give birth to season's first cyclonic storm that might affect the coastal areas in the east of the country. Rain is expected to make a comeback in the Kashmir valley while it will continue to occur in east, northeast and south during the next two days.

The low pressure area that developed in the last 24 hours may further intensify to become a depression and gradually a deep-depression in another 48 hours. This deep-depression may strengthen itself to produce a cyclonic storm thereafter. Movement of the weather system would only be ascertained if and when it develops fully.

After a brief gap today, rain is expected to return in Jammu & Kashmir tomorrow evening onwards as a fresh Western Disturbance is headed. Rain will gradually increase over Jammu & Kashmir and will also reach Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand during the next two to three days.

Weather over northwest plains especially that of its northern parts will see isolated rain or thunder showers during this period as a cyclonic circulation associated with the WD is expected to hover over west Rajasthan.

Day temperature in Delhi will continue to remain in lower 40s. Moisture feed due to change in winds from northwesterly to easterly to southeasterly will again bring in discomfort in the national capital tomorrow evening onwards as humidity will increase. Delhi will also see clouds gaining ground thus a partly cloudy sky will be witnessed on Saturday and Sunday. Day temperature might also fall a bit on these two days.

Rain in the east over Bihar and Jharkhand will reduce but will continue over West Bengal and Sikkim during the next two days. Temperatures in Bihar and Jharkhand may again shoot up to 4 degrees during daytime. Rain possibilities continue in northeast India where many places will receive rain during the period.

Rain will reduce over Kerala and Tamil Nadu during the next two days. The wind dis-continuity now runs from Bihar to south Tamil Nadu. There could be spurring in rainfall in these parts under the influence of the possible cyclonic storm in southeast Bay of Bengal.
