Monsoon in India is expected to commence withdrawal from west Rajasthan anytime during this week. The Monsoon trough is also likely to become less marked; particularly the western end and rainfall will be confined to East and Northeast India. Some isolated showers could also be seen over southern peninsula during this time.
Here’s a look at the weather forecast for the week:
Northwest India
Skies will be mainly clear with chances of very little rain. Up in the hills the weather will be pleasant without any significant weather activity. Reversal of winds from southeasterly to northwesterly will continue in the region throughout the week with anti cyclonic tendencies. Day temperatures could rise marginally but that will not create any inconvenience.
Central India
Predominantly northwesterly winds will blow in the region as a result of anti cyclonic flow over North India. Isolated light rain will be observed over south Chhattisgarh and north Maharashtra. In the absence of rain and cloud cover we can expect rise in day temperatures.
East and Northeast India
There is a feeble low pressure area associated with a cyclonic circulation marked in the west central Bay of Bengal and adjoining coastal parts due to which Monsoon rains will continue in East and Northeast India for the entire week. Thereafter it will start to reduce from East India. No significant rise is expected in the day temperature during the week.
South India
First half of the week will witness some scattered moderate rain showers over coastal parts of north Tamil Nadu and south Andhra Pradesh. Rain will also be observed along the western in pockets over Kerala and coastal Karnataka. Maximum temperature will settle in the low thirties barring Tamil Nadu, where it is expected to settle in the mid-thirties.
