A north-south trough extending from Bihar to Andhra Pradesh will cause ‘moderate to heavy’ rain with thunderstorms in Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Bihar and Arunachal Pradesh. The possibility of lightning has also been highlighted in these regions.
However, Jammu and Kashmir and Uttarakhand are likely to experience scattered snow or rain.
In Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh, isolated rain with thunderstorms is expected due to wind convergence in the region.
In the rest of the country, dry and fair weather conditions are likely to prevail. Maximum temperatures will be lower than normal over most of the country except southern India. At night the temperature will be +4°C to+8°C 'warmer than normal' in southern and northeastern India.
Air quality will fall under the ‘poor to very poor’ category in major cities across India and especially in Delhi.
