The state of  Madhya Pradesh had seen heavy to very heavy rains in the past few days, due to the presence of a well-marked low which moved towards the state from the Bay of Bengal. In fact, three-digit rains were seen over the region as well.

During the last couple of days, particularly the northern and central parts have seen moderate to heavy rains and thundershower activities. Other parts also have seen light to moderate rains.

These rains have been attributed to a Cyclonic Circulation over the northern region of Madhya Pradesh. Earlier, this Cyclonic Circulation was extending up to 4.5 km and tilting southwestwards but now it has weakened and only extending up to 1.5 km. Due to this particular system, moist winds from the Bay of Bengal have been affecting the entire state.

Now, during the next 24 hours, northwestern parts of Madhya Pradesh will see moderate to heavy rains with very heavy showers in some areas. These rains may also result in flood-like conditions over Ratlam, Sheopur, Ujjain, Bhopal, and Morena, etc.

These weather conditions will continue as the system will persist for the next 2-3 days. However, southern and eastern parts will see only light to moderate rains.
