JAMSHEDPUR: The Meteorological Department predicts that northwest India will be affected by a new Western Disturbance beginning on February 3.
This is in line with the weather that Jharkhand experienced today, as several areas were saturated by atypical rainfall.
The Ranchi Meteorological Centre of the Indian Meteorological Department has predicted intermittent mild to moderate rainfall throughout Jharkhand.
Chaibasa and other regions in southern Jharkhand saw minimum temperatures above 15 degrees Celsius.
The minimum temperatures recorded in Bokaro and Daltonganj, the Palamu headquarters, were 13.5 and 12.2 degrees Celsius, respectively.
The minimum temperature in Jamshedpur reached a high of 17 degrees Celsius, but Ranchi recorded 14.5 degrees.
Unseasonal weather in the central, northeastern, and southern districts of Jharkhand contributed to an increase in the state’s minimum temperatures.
The weather variations were caused by a cyclonic circulation that crossed Gangetic West Bengal and extended from Bangladesh to north Odisha.
The sudden downpour in places like Ranchi and Jamshedpur is caused by the Western Disturbance that is affecting northern India.
