A Cyclonic Circulation is currently persisting over Karnataka and its adjoining areas. A trough can also be seen extending from this system up to Kerala across interior parts of Karnataka. These systems have continued to persist over the area for the last few days now.
The combined systems have led to thundershower activities over the northern and coastal parts of Karnataka and Kerala in the last 24 hours. Also, forecasters at Skymet expect rain and thundershower activities to continue over some parts of North Interior Karnataka and at one or two places over Coastal Karnataka and Kerala. These intermittent rains will continue for the next 24 to 48 hours. Some major places such as Gadag, Belgaum, Vijayapura, Bagalkot, Mangalore, Panambur, Kochi and Trivandrum are likely to be the witness to these rains.On the other hand, the southern parts of Karnataka will remain warm and humid with chances of thunderclouds in parts.
Most parts of Kerala will also observe similar weather as Karnataka. Chances of short spell of thundershower are forecast over these areas for the next 24 to 48 hours.
Rise in the levels of humidity will make the weather unpleasant and pretty uneasy in the early afternoon hours over both the states. Morning and evening, however, will remain breezy along the coastal stations.
