Rainy day in Bihar to continue, heavier showers expected

April 9, 2019 12:42 PM | Skymet Weather Team

Rainfall activity has been lashing the state of Bihar for the last 24 hours. In fact, light to moderate rains occurred with one or two heavy spells over the state during the last 24 hours. Purnea recorded 15 mm of rainfall in the same time frame.

Moreover, since the morning hours, rainfall activity has been on the heavier side for the foothills of Bihar with hailstorm in few pockets.

These rainfall activities can be attributed to the presence of a trough which is extending from North Bihar to Northeast India. Moreover, an Anti-Cyclone is also persisting over North Bay of Bengal, which is pushing moisture laden warm and humid winds towards the region. Along with this, the remnants of Western Disturbance have also increased the moisture which has travelled along with Himalayan foothills up to the foothills of Bihar.

Now, these weather activities will continue for the next few hours. By tomorrow, foothills of Northeast Bihar are expected to get rain and thundershowers. Other parts of the state may remain almost dry. Isolated light rain may occur over Purnea, Bhagalpur, Katihar, Supaul and Kishanganj.

After 24 hours, weather activities will reduce over the state of Bihar. Weather will clear up thereafter, paving way for dry weather conditions.
