Cyclonic Circulation and Monsoon Trough Bring Scattered Rainfall Across India
IN · Published Aug 26, 2026
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has reported the persistence of an upper air cyclonic circulation over north Haryana and its neighbourhood, extending up to 1.5 km above mean sea level.
Additionally, the monsoon trough at mean sea level continues to pass through Amritsar, Najibabad, Hardoi, the centre of a low-pressure area over northeast Madhya Pradesh, Jamshedpur, Digha, and further southeast to the Northeast Bay of Bengal.

Impact & Risks

The ongoing weather systems are expected to bring rainfall to several regions, which could provide relief from dry conditions but may also lead to localised disruptions. Areas such as Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand may experience isolated thunderstorms and lightning, posing risks to outdoor activities and infrastructure. In South Peninsular India, including Tamil Nadu, Telangana, and Karnataka, scattered rainfall could impact agricultural activities and transportation. Residents in affected areas should remain cautious of potential waterlogging and reduced visibility during heavy rainfall.
