Monsoon tracker: IMD predicts heavy rainfall in these states. Check full forecast here

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a press release regarding the weather conditions in various parts of the country on August 3, 2023 predicting weather conditions and associated precipitation until August 9th.

The depression over north Chhattisgarh and its surrounding areas weakened and transformed into a Well Marked Low Pressure Area (LPA) over the same region. The system is expected to move gradually in a west-northwest direction towards northeast Madhya Pradesh and adjoining southeast Uttar Pradesh. During this movement, the low-pressure area is likely to weaken further and eventually dissipate into the atmosphere today. Hence its impact can be felt in Indian states of the region.

Light to moderate rainfall expected at most places over East Madhya Pradesh with heavy to very heavy rainfall at a few places on 4th August. Heavy rainfall at isolated places is likely on 5th August.
