Weather systems affecting Madhya Pradesh at present

What do meteorologists say?

According to weather scientists, a monsoon trough, an upper-air cyclonic circulation and an east-west shear zone are currently active over Madhya Pradesh.

Weather experts said these systems are bringing continuous moisture from the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea, resulting in heavy rainfall in several districts within a short period.

Continuous rain has affected normal life in several areas, with some roads being closed due to waterlogging and flooding.

The IMD has advised residents to remain cautious as heavy rainfall may lead to waterlogging, road blockages and other weather-related disruptions.
