Weather System Influences Rain in Eastern Uttar Pradesh
The recent weather changes in eastern Uttar Pradesh are attributed to a deep depression that formed over the Bay of Bengal. This system crossed the north Andhra Pradesh-south Odisha coast and has moved inland, prompting the India Meteorological Department to predict rain and thunderstorms in the region.
This week, the weather in the city has been warm but not excessively hot. However, a notable shift occurred on Thursday, when the sky was largely covered by clouds and gusty winds swept through the area, indicating the arrival of the weather system’s effects.
