The previous Western Disturbance has cleared away while a fresh one is lying over North Pakistan and adjoining areas. During the next 24 hours, the higher reaches of Jammu and Kashmir will receive very light rain and snow.

The feeble cyclonic circulation can be seen over Punjab and adjoining Rajasthan region.

The cyclonic circulation over Gujarat is becoming more marked. The confluence zone has shifted from East India to Madhya Pradesh and Rajasthan. The combination of both the systems will cause an extended rainfall activity over Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Delhi-NCR, West Uttar Pradesh and West Madhya Pradesh.

The anti-cyclone over here will keep weather conditions mainly dry over Central and Eastern parts.

A fresh cyclonic circulation is coming up over Northeast India. It will take another 2 days to get established.

The low pressure area over Southwest Bay of Bengal is not showing any signs of intensification. Rather it seems to be more of a trough now. But, it is good enough to bring a prolonged spell of rain commencing with the coastal areas and gradually spreading to the interiors of Tamil Nadu.

Minimum temperatures will remain above 10 degrees across the Northern plains. Delhi will record 12°C as minimum tomorrow.

Day temperatures have reached lower-thirties in East India with Lucknow and Patna both at 31°C.

Down south, Ahmedabad, Mumbai and Chennai will record 32°C as maximum.
