As per Skymet Weather, light to moderate rains will continue to pound many parts of East Rajasthan, whereas the rain activity will decrease over North and West Rajasthan. After 24 hours, rainfall activity is anticipated to decrease in south and southeast parts of Rajasthan, too.
All thanks to a low pressure area over Kutch and adjoining Rajasthan. A trough is also extending from this system to East Assam across South of Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Now this system is likely to weaken during the next 24 hours and a cyclonic circulation is expected over South Rajasthan that will move toward northeastwards. Another cyclonic circulation lies over North Rajasthan and adjoining parts of Punjab.
