Rainy Spell Hits Eastern and Central India; Delhi Remains Sunlit

The climatic picture for the coming days outlines a sharp contrast between India's eastern and central zones and its capital. From September 18 through 23, eastern states—including Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal—will experience persistent showers, some of them marked as heavy. Simultaneously, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh are set for a wet spell, with the former's eastern districts seeing heightened activity from the 19th.

In the northeast, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, and Meghalaya are slated for rain on the 18th, while Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura anticipate widespread precipitation on the 19th. These regions also face the possibility of thunderstorms and strong gusts.

Delhi, on the other hand, enjoys a five‑day window without rain. Forecasts predict clear skies with temperatures peaking at 34 °C, accompanied by a strong UV index. Residents should consider outdoor plans but also take precautions against heat exposure.

Overall, the nation’s weather services urge people in affected zones to monitor local updates, secure vulnerable assets, and heed any lightning warnings issued by authorities.
