As reiterated by Skymet Weather, these rains can be attributed to a trough which is passing through Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand and which is originating over NorthRajasthan, extending up to the Bay of Bengal. Moreover, as this trough is likely to persist overOdishaand Jharkhand, Monsoon rains are expected to sustain over both the states for the next 24 hours.
Thereafter, though rain intensity may decline over Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh will continue to witness light to moderate rains for another one or two days.
Hence, the districts likeRaipur, Bilaspur, and Rajnandgaon in Chhattisgarh while Ranchi and Jamshedpur in Jharkhand may keep on recording some good Monsoon showers.
