The southwest monsoon will likely cover some parts of Bihar and Jharkhand, remaining parts of sub-Himalayan West Bengal, some parts of Gangetic West Bengal, more parts of Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, Odisha and coastal Andhra Pradesh during the next 3-4 days, the India Meteorological Department said on Tuesday. The northern limit of the monsoon currently passes through Navsari in Gujarat, Jalgaon, Amravati, and Chandrapur in Maharashtra, Bijaur in Karnataka, Sukma in Chhattisgarh, Malkangiri in Odisha, Vizianagaram in Andhra Pradesh, and Islampur in West Bengal. Monsoon rains are expected to commence over eastern India and eastern parts of central India in the next three to four days, private weather agency Skymet said. The development of a trough, which is an elongated area of low pressure, extending from southeast Uttarakhand to east Bihar, and a cyclonic circulation expected to form over east Bihar and adjoining West Bengal, will act as triggers, aiding the eastward movement of the monsoon, the agency said. Strong westerly winds blowing consistently over the Indo-Gangetic plains had acted as a barrier for the monsoon to reach the eastern side of the country, Skymet said. The onset of the monsoon in these parts will be a welcome relief for states like Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha, and eastern Uttar Pradesh, which have been battling scorching heatwave conditions, it said. The monsoon could potentially further move east and reach eastern Uttar Pradesh and eastern Madhya Pradesh by Jun 24 or 25, Skymet said. Rainfall is expected to intensify in eastern Rajasthan and Gujarat during the same period, it said.
