These showers can be attributed to a low pressure area that is seen over East Uttar Pradesh and adjoining parts of Bihar. Moreover, a cyclonic circulation is marked over the area and a trough is also extending from this system with its one arm reaching Northeast Bay of Bengal and another up to Assam.
