photoA cyclonic circulation which is on the verge of evolving into a low pressure area is expected to bring another spell of moderate to heavy rain in central India, especially over Madhya Pradesh that is battling floods.

Before lashing Madhya Pradesh, the weather system will bring rain to east Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Orissa, Chhattisgarh and Gangetic West Bengal during the next 24 to 48 hours. The flood situation in Varanasi and Allahabad could deteriorate further with another spell of rain.

Meanwhile, Odisha and the West Bengal coast, including Kolkata, is heading for heavy to very heavy rain in next 24 hours. Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Vidarbha will also get affected when the weather system enters the land from the Bay of Bengal.

While moving in west-northwestwards direction, the weather system will meander through central India between 29th to 31st August, unleashing a fair amount of rain over Chhattisgarh, east Gujarat and Rajasthan. Water levels in the Narmada, Shipra and Paineganga rivers could rise further

Northwest India will get some relief from the hot and humid weather as the advancement of a fresh western disturbance will bring clouds and rain to the region from Wednesday onwards.

In south India, interiors parts will remain mostly dry with above average temperatures. The west coast, barring north coastal Karnataka and south Konkan coast, will get light rain.
