The reason for these showers as per Skymet Weather can be attributed to a trough that is extending from the central parts of the country up to coastal Andhra Pradesh across Telangana. An active Monsoon surge over Telangana, Andhra Pradesh including Rayalaseema can also be a contributing factor for these good showers.
These rains are expected to continue lashing the state for the next 24 hours but will reduce gradually thereafter. Not much variations in the temperature profile are anticipated for the next 48 hours. Moreover, breezy weather condition will prevail along the coastal belt of the state.
As on June 15, Coastal Andhra Pradesh is 43% rain surplus while Rayalaseema is 13% rain surplus. And these ongoing rains will contribute in increasing the surplus statistics of the state.
