The axis of Monsoon trough which was extending across Punjab, Haryana, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh has been giving good rains over the northwestern plains of India i.e. Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, West Uttar Prdaesh and North Rajasthan.
Particularly parts of Punjab, East Haryana, Delhi and West Uttar Pradesh have been witnessing good rainfall activity. In the last 24 hours from 08:30 am on Tuesday, New Delhi recorded 24 mm of rain, followed by Karnal 19 mm, Ludhiana 18 mm, Alwar 14 mm, Churu 13 mm, Nahan 10 mm.
Although fairly widespread rains were witnessed by the northwestern plains, during the last 24 hours. But due to southwards oscillation of axis of Monsoon trough we expect intensity and spread of rain to reduce over Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, West Uttar Pradesh and parts of Rajasthan.
As the easterly winds are expected to continue and moisture will remain high therefore, dur to increase in temperature there is possibility of thunder cloud development and short spells of patchy rain over all these areas.
But these rains will not be all over the places. This will be a short-lived phenomenon affecting isolated pockets of all these states including the capital city Delhi.
After two days, the axis of monsoon trough will again start shifting to north and we expect intensity and spread of rain to increase around August 11.
