Relief from scorching heat likely in East India, as Met Dept forecasts rain for 3 days

India Today  

The Met Department on Friday forecasted rain and thunderstorms in several states of eastern India for the next three days, bringing joy for people across the region reeling under severe heatwave conditions. "Due to the formation of a cyclonic circulation over central Uttar Pradesh and moisture incursion from the Bay of Bengal, the maximum temperature is likely to fall by three to five degrees Celsius during the next five days," it said in a special bulletin. Heatwave conditions have been prevailing in Gangetic West Bengal for the last 10 days, with Bankura recording a maximum temperature of 44.3 degrees Celsius on Thursday, followed by Panagarh air force station at 43.9 degrees C, the department said. Bihar capital Patna recorded the day's maximum temperature at 39.3 degrees C, while Gaya was cooler at 38.5 degrees C. In Jharkhand, the state's highest temperature was recorded in Daltonganj at 40 degrees C, and in Jamshedpur, the mercury settled at 36.5 degrees C, the department said. “The day temperature is likely to fall by 2-4 degrees C in the next three days,” the Met office said.
