The table below displays rainfall recorded during last 24 hours from 08:30 am on Monday:
Western end of axis of Monsoon trough which is currently running fromRajasthanandMadhya Pradeshis expected to shift towards north.
With the interaction of Western Disturbance which is at present overJammu & Kashmir,rain intensity is also likely to increase over the hilly regions ofHimachal Pradeshand Uttarakhand.
Though the state had observed incidents of cloudbursts, flash floods and landslides earlier, weather became comfortable with scattered light to moderate rains. However, history might repeat itself and the state may observe heavy rains once again that would aggravate the situation over the particular area. Rivers might also start overflowing and could possibly bring flash floods.
One or two incidents of cloudbursts over the area cannot be ruled out as well. The development of cumulonimbus clouds are also very common during this type of weather events.
