These weather conditions can be attributed to a cyclonic circulation which is seen over southern parts of Odisha and adjoining areas. An upper air trough is also seen extending from this system up to Coastal Karnataka. Further, this weather system is likely to shift towards west.
Moreover, moist winds are blowing from the Bay of Bengal and thus, making the weather warm over these states. Due to the prevailing weather systems, light to moderate rain and thundershower activities are likely to continue over Odisha and Chhattisgarh during the next two to three days.
Meanwhile, at some places over northern districts of Odisha are expected to witness heavy spells of rain during the next 48 hours. Districts such as Balasore, Baleshwar, Paradip, Bhubaneswar and Bhadrak will continue to record heavy rains at isolated places during the similar time frame.
Talking about Jharkhand, a cyclonic circulation lies over North Bay of Bengal off Gangetic West Bengal Coast. This system too is likely to shift towards the northwest direction. Due to this, light to moderate rains are likely to continue over Jharkhand during the next 24 hours.
Thereafter, the intensity of these rains is further likely to increase in the coming few days over this state. In the meantime, a marginal decrease in the day temperatures is expected all over these states during this period.
As on October 7, the sub-divisional rainfall distribution statistics show that Odisha, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh are all rain surplus by 59%, 28% and 11%, respectively.
