Large parts of north, central, and east India are set for another day of heavy rain on September 5, as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has warned of isolated very heavy rainfall over East Rajasthan and West Madhya Pradesh, along with heavy rain across several other states including Haryana, Punjab, Uttarakhand and West Bengal.
The rain activity is being driven by a well-marked low pressure area over central parts of northern Madhya Pradesh and adjoining south Uttar Pradesh, which IMD says will remain quasi-stationary for the next two days. A western disturbance affecting the Himalayan region and an associated monsoon trough running from Sri Ganganagar to Tripura are also contributing to the widespread rain activity across the country.
