These weather conditions were a result of an upper air Trough which is extending from Odisha up to Andhra Pradesh.
As this Trough will persist for another 48 hours, rain and thundershower activities will continue over the states of Odisha andChhattisgarh. Places like Jagdalpur, Durg, Raipur, Narayanpur, Koraput, Rayagada, Navrangpur, Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Ganjam and Malkangiri may get to see light to moderate rain and thundershowers for the next two to three days. These rains would be beneficial for the Paddy crops grown in these areas.
On the other hand, places like Titlagarh, Jharsuguda, Sambalpur, Pendra Road,Ambikapur,Sundergarh, andBilaspurwill remain dry and warm. The absence of rain may affect the cropping system in this region.
