Skymet Weather expects light to moderate rains to continue over the hilly states for the next 2 days. Although the intensity of these rains may vary from light to moderate but one or two heavy spells cannot be ruled out. However, extremely heavy spells are not on the cards for these states for at least next 4 to 5 days.
The reason could be attributed to the absence of any significant weather system such as an active Western disturbance or cyclonic circulation. Besides this, the trough is also passing from Rajasthan towards Bay of Bengal across the central region.
