As per weathermen at Skymet Weather, these heavy rainfall activities can be attributed to the presence of a cyclonic circulation over Southeast Uttar Pradesh and adjoining areas. Due to this, moisture incursion has increased resulting in cloud development over the region.
Now, during the next 24 hours, more Monsoon showers are expected to lash the city of Lucknow. These rains will be of light to moderate intensity. The possibility of heavy rains over this region is also expected.
