New Delhi: Fairly widespread to widespread rains are very likely over parts of Central and north-west India in the next four to five days. Isolated heavy falls are also likely over the region during the same period under the influence of the monsoon trough which is currently holding south of its normal position, according to the IMD.

Isolated heavy to very and extremely heavy falls are also very likely over Saurashtra and Kutch during the next two days and isolated heavy to very heavy falls thereafter.
Under the influence of a low-pressure area over north-west Bay of Bengal off the Odisha-Gangetic West Bengal coasts and associated cyclonic circulations, fairly widespread to widespread rains with isolated heavy to very heavy falls likely over Odisha, West Bengal, Jharkhand and Bihar during next two to three days and isolated heavy falls thereafter.
