Skymet Meteorology Division in India explains that during this time of the year, amid high temperatures, cyclonic circulations pop up across the country wherein mixing of moist and dry winds take place to form convective clouds and bring rain. Even if it does not rain, the presence of moist winds keeps day temperatures under check, bringing reprieve from the scorching summer heat.
A similar cyclonic circulation over northeast Rajasthan could again be responsible for cloudy sky with chances of rain in the capital Jaipur and adjoining areas during the next 24 hours. Rain will remain subdued in other parts of northwest plains which could increase the maximum temperatures. But with a gap on 16th May, a fresh Western Disturbance will bring back rainy weather to the region.
According to the latest weather update by Skymet Meteorology Division in India, East India, especially Bihar, Gangetic West Bengal and Jharkhand will continue to feel heat wave like condition due to uninterrupted westerly winds. Bankura, Asansol, Patna and Bhagalpur in the region will continue to observe above normal temperatures for the next two days.
Meanwhile, conditions were better in Allahabad, Varanasi and Gorakhpur in east Uttar Pradesh as they recorded near normal day temperatures on Wednesday.
Some rain is expected over the hilly areas of West Bengal and Sikkim. Rain will decrease in northeast region over Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Manipur and Tripura during the next two days.
The weather in South India will continue to remain hot. Day temperatures at some of the places in Andhra Pradesh are among the highest in the country at the moment. Pre-monsoon rain is expected to remain subdued till the next week. However, isolated places in Kerala and south Tamil Nadu coast will continue to receive showers due to wind discontinuity.
