A low-pressure area has formed over the northeast Bay of Bengal, which will likely cause light to heavy rainfall in a number of locations in the east, northeast, and south India over the next 36 hours as the extremely severe cyclonic storm “Biparjoy” moves north-northeastward over the course of two days.
The national capital is expected to experience some drizzle on Saturday, according to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), but Delhi residents shouldn’t expect any relief from the sweltering heat as the temperature is predicted to reach 40 degrees Celsius. For the next two to three days, Delhi’s temperatures will stay around 40 degrees Celsius, according to IMD, which also noted that high temperatures and moisture availability could result in convective clouds and precipitation.
It is also anticipated that Mumbai, Thane, and Palghar in Maharashtra would get light to moderate rainfall over the following two days.
The weather service has cautioned against fishing in the seas off the coasts of Kerala, Karnataka and Lakshadweep due to cyclonic conditions, as there will likely be heavy rain in the area over the next two to four days.
