Weather Conditions Shifting Across India

The weather across the country is undergoing rapid changes. While snowfall is occurring in the mountains, the plains are beginning to feel the chill. In this context, the meteorological department has provided crucial updates regarding the weather in Delhi-NCR and northern India. A new western disturbance is expected to become active from November 15. Additionally, a low-pressure area forming over the Bay of Bengal may develop into a cyclonic storm.

Weather Changes in Delhi-NCR on November 15

According to Dr. Akhil Srivastava from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the western disturbance affecting northwest India has now shifted eastward. A new western disturbance is anticipated to impact the western Himalayan region starting November 15.

From the morning to afternoon of November 15, light rain or drizzle is expected in some areas of Delhi and its surroundings. This may also lead to a drop in daytime temperatures, with maximum temperatures projected to range between 26 to 28 degrees Celsius.

Snowfall Expected in the Mountains

The new western disturbance is likely to bring thunderstorms and snowfall to the higher altitudes of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand. This will likely increase the cold in these hilly regions, which have already experienced significant snowfall earlier.

Cyclone Formation in the Bay of Bengal

Meteorologists have noted that a low-pressure area is currently present over the Bay of Bengal. It is predicted to transform into a cyclonic storm by November 16. The meteorological department is closely monitoring this system, and further updates regarding its movement and potential impacts will be provided in the coming days.

Temperature Forecast for Delhi

Weather forecasts indicate that on November 14, Delhi's maximum temperature will be between 27 to 29 degrees Celsius, with a minimum of 16 to 18 degrees Celsius. However, on November 15 and 16, the maximum temperature is expected to drop to between 26 to 28 degrees Celsius.

Overall, the weather in northern India is set to change significantly in mid-November, with snowfall in the mountains, light rain in the plains, and a potential cyclonic storm in the Bay of Bengal. It is essential to stay updated with the meteorological department's announcements.
