Active Trough

These weather developments are influenced by a trough extending from a cyclonic circulation over Southwest Rajasthan to the northwest Bay of Bengal, passing through parts of east Rajasthan, north Madhya Pradesh, north Chhattisgarh, and north Odisha at approximately 0.9 Km above mean sea level.

Furthermore, a low-pressure area is likely to form over the west-central and adjoining north Bay of Bengal around May 27, which may further enhance rainfall activity in the region.

People are advised to stay updated with official weather reports and take necessary precautions during thunderstorm activity, particularly in vulnerable and flood-prone areas.
