Since the beginning of June, the interior parts ofKarnatakahave been receiving good rain and thundershower activities due to which South Interior Karnataka is rain surplus by 29%, while rain in North Interior Karnataka is surplus by 40%.
Coastal Karnataka is, however, observing rainfall deficiency of 89% due to fewer weather activities. During the last 24 hours, heavy rain was observed in Coastal Karnataka. These rains will certainly bring down the ongoingrain deficiency of Coastal Karnataka.
In the last 24 hours from 08:30 am on Wednesday,Madikerirecorded 43 mm of rain, followed byHonnavar41 mm, Bengaluru 33 mm and Karwar 26 mm.
An offshore trough is extending fromKarnataka to Kerala. And a cyclonic circulation is also persisting over Lakshadweep area, which has enhanced the rainfall activities over Coastal Karnataka.
Now in the coming two to three days, we expect rain and thundershower activities accompanied with strong winds to increase over Coastal Karnataka and South Interior Karnataka includingBengaluru.
After June 8, rains will decrease over entire Karnataka as a low-pressure area is expected to develop over Lakshadweep and adjoining Southeast Arabian Sea which will gradually intensify into a depression. Due to this, moisture concentration will be around that weather system, leavingKarnatakaalmost dry.
So, we can say that after a few days, signficant decrease will occur inrainfall activities over most parts of Karnatakaincluding the capital cityBengaluru.
