However, these rains are likely to subside thereafter. After 48 hours, a trough is expected to form overBiharand East Uttar Pradesh leading to change in wind directions over the northeastern states. Due to the change in wind direction, humid winds from the Bay of Bengal which is increasing moisture will get cut off and hence, rains will decrease significantly over the entire Northeast India.
As per Skymet, the decrease in the amount of rainfall will be effective in the next 48 hours over the Northeastern states. But scattered light to moderate rains will continue.
