As per Skymet Weather, we can expect more or less dry weather conditions to grip Uttar Pradesh for at least the next three days. Nevertheless, on and off rains would continue over Bihar.

Around July 9, we can expect Monsoon rainfall to again increase over Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. At this juncture, few moderate to heavy spells can be expected from July 9 to 12.

These rains would be due to the formation of a trough, which is anticipated to extend from Northwest Uttar Pradesh up to Odisha across central portion of Uttar Pradesh.

Besides this, the maximum temperatures are also likely to increase during the next 2 to 3 days, settling in higher 30s across Uttar Pradesh as well as Bihar. This is likely to result in discomfort as the regions are also dealing with high humidity levels at the moment.

As on July 4, the cumulative rainfall deficiency for East Uttar Pradesh stands at 36% and West Uttar Pradesh 26%, while Bihar saw deficit rains to tune of 19%.
