The weather of Lucknow has remained warm and humid from last many days. Though from last 24-48 hours, light rains have been occurring over the city, but heavy spells have remained far and few from pouring over. In the month of June, it was just on one or two occasions when Lucknow witnessed good rains. In fact, a three-digit rainfall is also in the record for the city on June 16.  Thereafter, the weather went on to become dry.

In the last 24 hours also moderate to heavy rains occurred in parts of Uttar Pradesh. In a span of last 24 hours from 8:30 am on Friday, Varanasi recorded 11.8 mm of rainfall, Meerut 11.7 mm, Moradabad 2.6 mm, and Lucknow recorded 2 mm of rainfall.

As per Skymet Weather, a cyclonic circulation is seen over Northeast Rajasthan. Moreover, a trough is also seen extending from this system up to East Assam across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Due to these weather systems, light to moderate rain and thundershower activities along with chances of heavy spells are possible to continue over Lucknow, Bareilly, Varanasi, Meerut, Allahabad and Gorakhpur during the next 24 to 48 hours.

This will lead to an increase in the rain activity within the next 24 to 48 hours. Thereafter, this trough is likely to shift gradually towards North and may reach closer to the foothills of Uttar Pradesh. But rains will keep pouring over these regions.
