Meghalaya will continue to see rains accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning all through this week.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), this week’s rains are brought fresh by a low-pressure system near Odisha’s coast over the Bay of Bengal and its interaction with the prevailing monsoon trough.
Under their influence, fairly widespread to widespread light to moderate rains accompanied by thunderstorms and lightning has been forecast over Meghalaya, Assam and Arunachal till September 23.
During this forecast period, heavy showers (64.5 mm-115.5 mm) may also lash these states in localised areas.
As a precaution, the IMD has placed Assam and Meghalaya on a yellow watch (meaning ‘be updated on the hazardous weather’) till September 23, Arunachal Pradesh from tomorrow till September 23.
