Rise in temperatures have brought warmer days back in Delhi. And this trend is likely to maintain for the next few days. Owing to the presence of left over moisture, rain may occur in some parts of the city but it will be light and in patches.

Similar weather conditions will prevail over entire northwest plains except east Rajasthan, north Madhya Pradesh and adjoining southwest Uttar Pradesh where rain is expected due to presence of the low pressure area over west Madhya Pradesh. Many places in Madhya Pradesh and a few places in east Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh will receive rain during the next two days.

In eastern parts, the cyclonic circulation over Jharkhand has moved to Bihar. Under this system, rain will occur at a few places over Bihar, Jharkhand, Gangetic West Bengal and east Uttar Pradesh. Interaction of the weather system with the axis of monsoon trough could also give heavy rain at one or two places in the region during the next two days.

Rain could increase in the region once the cyclonic circulation in the Bay of Bengal culminates into a low pressure area and moves towards Orissa coast that is expected to receive rain during the next 24 hours due to the same system.

Meanwhile, rain is expected to increase in northeast region during the next two days. Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Meghalaya will receive rain at many places. Nagaland, Manipur and Mizoram will also receive rain at some places.

In south, rain will remain subdued due to which temperatures will record above normal. Rain will be light along the West coast and it is unlikely to pick up during the next two days as there is no weather system in the offing from the Arabian Sea.
