IMD Predicts Heavy Rainfall in NE for Next Five Days

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted heavy rainfall accompanied by thunderstorm in the Northeast region during the next five days.

Rainfall accompanied by thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds is expected in the Northeast for the next five days, predicted IMD.

This may occur due to the influence of strong south-westerly winds from the Bay of Bengal to the Northeast at lower tropospheric levels, IMD said.

According to IMD, rainfall intensity is likely to increase over the Northeast from April 29.

Assam, Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh are likely to witness fairly widespread/widespread rainfall with thunderstorm/lightning/gusty winds (speed reaching 40-50 kmph).

Nagaland-Manipur-Mizoram-Tripura & Sub-Himalayan West Bengal-Sikkim may witness scattered/fairly widespread rainfall during the next five days, IMD said.

Isolated heavy rainfall is very likely over Arunachal Pradesh on April 30 and over Assam-Meghalaya from April 30 to May 2.
