The withdrawal line of southwest monsoon continues to pass through Kalpa, Hissar, Jodhpur and Nalia. Isolated rain and thundershowers are expected to bring down temperatures in Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Haryana. South and east Rajasthan is likely to receive light to moderate rain at few places, keeping the mercury near normal. A predominantly cloudy sky with chances of light rain will not allow the maximum temperature in the national capital to rise above 33 degrees.

Under its influence, a low pressure area will develop over Bay of Bengal leading to thundershowers in West Bengal and Orrisa. Jharkhand and north eastern states may receive light to moderate rain. Temperatures are expected to drop by a couple of notches after 48 hours in the north eastern states.

The southern peninsula will remain mainly dry due to the absence of any significant low pressure system. Nevertheless, isolated light rain is a possibility in coastal Andhra Pradesh. Temperature will rise by a couple of degrees in coastal Andhra Pradesh. While, it will remain near normal in interior Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
