The west coast received good showers during the last thirty six hours. Rain is likely to continue along the coast as the seasonal offshore trough is active and the moisture laden southwesterly winds are strong. The trough is extending from Maharashtra to Kerala coast. Fishermen are being warned not to venture out in the seas in Maharashtra, Konkan, Goa and Kerala coast.
Rainfall activities are expected to continue over Gujarat, southeast Rajasthan and west Madhya Pradesh as the low pressure area over northeast Madhya Pradesh has merged with the monsoon trough. Showers could be heavy at one or two places over the entire region.
The upper air cyclonic circulation associated with the low pressure area over Chhattisgarh and adjoining area tilting southwestward still persists and will bring rain over east Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Orissa in the next twenty four hours.
The monsoon trough is passing through Phalodi, Ajmer, Shivpuri, Satna, Daltonganj, Jamshedpur, Digha and thence southeastwards to the eastcentral Bay of Bengal. Monsoon trough is essentially a region of intensified monsoon winds. The western end of this trough would bring light to moderate rain over Punjab, Haryana and Delhi & NCR during the next twenty four hours.
However, the rainfall activity would subdue over the western Himalayan region, east Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and West Bengal during the next twenty four to forty eight hours. But the moist southeasterly winds will reach up to the eastern Himalayan region in Northeastern states of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. Heavy rain at one or two places would occur over the region during the next twenty four hours.
