Monsoon current continues to be week over Peninsular India. Particularly, the West Coast has recorded significant drop in rain activity. Similar weather conditions will prevail on Thursday, light to moderate Monsoon rain will continue over Kerala, Coastal Karnataka, and Konkan & Goa. While interior pockets will also record isolated light rain.

Meanwhile, Monsoon current remains active over Northeast India, particularly over Sub-Himalayan West Bengal and Assam region. Moreover, we can expect another Monsoon system brewing in West central Bay of Bengal, which is likely to enhance the Monsoon into some more parts of east India. It will also activate the western arm of the Monsoon, leading to increase in rains over west coast.

A cyclonic circulation is seen over Bihar and adjoining West Bengal. We can also see a trough from this system running deep in West-central Bay of Bengal. Accordingly, moderate to heavy Monsoon rains will continue over entire northeastern states, Sub Himalayan West Bengal and Sikkim on Thursday. While, light to moderate rains will continue over remaining West Bengal, Odisha, Jharkhand and Bihar. While, isolated showers are also likely over Chhattisgarh and East Madhya Pradesh.

Another cyclonic circulation is seen over Uttarakhand and Haryana and a trough is running from this system across the Indo-Gangetic plains till this West Bengal. With this, scattered rain and thundershowers, along with thunderstorm and dust storm may occur over Uttarakhand, foothills of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Few places may see heavy to very heavy rains. While northern plains may see some very isolated weather activity on Thursday. Meanwhile, Central and West India will remain dry.
