MUMBAI – The Southwest monsoon has advanced into some parts of Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, and northeast India Saturday, the India Meteorological Department said in a release. The monsoon has also covered entire Goa, and more parts of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu Saturday, the weather department said.    

 

The northern limit of monsoon passes through Devgad in Maharashtra, Koppal in Karnataka, Anantpuramu in Andhra Pradesh, Chennai in Tamil Nadu, and Aizawl in Mizoram as of Saturday. The weather bureau expects conditions to be favourable for further advancement of Southwest monsoon into parts of Maharashtra, southern states, and northeastern states during the next two to three days.  

 

Parts of Kerala and Karnataka are expected to see heavy to very heavy rainfall during the next seven days. The presence of an upper air cyclonic circulation over north Kerala and neighbourhood is expected to lead to heavy showers, the weather bureau said and issued a red alert for Saturday and an orange alert till Monday.  

 

A red alert indicates rainfall exceeding 204.5 millimetres in 24 hours and is the highest level of weather warning, according to the weather bureau. An orange alert is issued when rainfall exceeds 115.6 millimetres and goes up to 204.4 millimetres.

 

The weather bureau issued an orange alert for west Rajasthan till Sunday due to heavy showers over the region. These showers are mainly due to the western disturbance, which is a cyclonic circulation over Jammu division and its neighbourhood.  

 

Heavy rainfall is likely over parts of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, and Meghalaya till Monday. Similar weather conditions are likely over Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura till Friday. Parts of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, and Meghalaya are likely to see very heavy showers during the next week. Very heavy showers are also likely over parts of Tamil Nadu for the next seven days. 

 

The weather bureau said a fresh western disturbance is likely to affect the Western Himalayan region from Thursday. A trough now runs from upper air cyclonic circulation over Punjab and its neighbourhood to northeast Arabian Sea, the weather predictor said. 

 

On the other hand, heat wave conditions are likely to continue to persist in parts of coastal Andhra Pradesh, east Madhya Pradesh, east Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Chandigarh, and Delhi in the coming week. Hot and humid weather conditions along with warm night are likely over Odisha from Monday to Wednesday.  End
