North India – Weather in North India will be cooler this week as the Monsoon clouds will cover the region and pull down the maximums which were recording five to seven degrees above the normal average in the last few days. Rain bearing Monsoon clouds will bring scattered to good showers over Delhi and entire northern plains on the 16th and 17th July. Rain will reduce thereafter and the weather will again turn mainly dry. Though, a persistent cloud cover may not allow the maximums to shoot up to 40⁰C this time. Up in the hills, barring Uttarakhand where Monsoon showers could be good from 15th July, the weather in Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir will almost be dry .
East and Northeast India – There isn't going to be heavy rain in East India this week. Rain will be scattered and light in parts of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Jharkhand from the 15th to the 18th of July. The low pressure system in the Bay of Bengal will give some light rain over the area as it is moving inland. In the Northeast, rain activity will be subdued for the entire week. There isn't any strong Monsoon trough which would give rain to the area.
Central India – Just as predicted, Central India remains the main center of activity this week. However, here too rain will reduce from the second half of the week, i.e. Thursday onwards. Rain will reduce as the low pressure system will move northwards towards Uttar Pradesh. The first half of the week will see some good Monsoon showers over entire Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh and Odisha. Rain and a thick cloud mass will make both days and night very cool. Maximums will settle in the lower thirties, while minimums will settle in the lower twenties. Gujarat will witness some good rain only for the first two days of the week, turning dry thereafter.
South India – The weather in South India is expected to be less rainier this week. The west coast which has been observing some torrential rainfall in the last three to four days, will continue to receive rain of varied amounts throughout the week. But the interior parts will be the worst hit as rain will almost be nil here. States of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu will also not observe any major rain activity. As a result, temperatures will rise to settle in the higher thirties at places with little rain . Good rain all along the west coast will help in reducing the rainfall deficit of 32% being faced by South India.
