It is informed that the southwest monsoon may once again become vigorous over the central and northwest India in the next 24-48 hours, as the rain trough moves towards the plains from the foothills, while the cyclonic circulation, brewing over the Bay of Bengal, moves deeper towards the mainland.
“The rains which are at present passing through a slightly weak phase will again become active over south Chhattisgarh, Telengana and parts of Vidharbha over the next 24 to 48 hours because a cyclonic circulation which is stationed around coastal Andhra Pradesh will move inwards,” Mahesh Palawat, chief meteorologist at private weather forecasting firm Skymet said.
