In a span of 24 hours from 08:30 am on Tuesday, Mazbat recorded rain to the tune of 67 mm, Tezpur 45 mm, Itanagar 22 mm, Dhubri 21 mm, Mangan 15 mm, Dibrugarh 15 mm, North Lakhimpur 14 mm, Gangtok 10 mm, Pasighat 10 mm and Tadong 8 mm.

Now according to the weathermen in Skymet Weather, a trough is extending from East Bihar to Gangetic West Bengal. Besides this, moist winds from the Bay of Bengal are affecting Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, East Assam and Arunachal Pradesh.

As a result, we expect scattered light to moderate rain and thundershower activities over all these regions during the next 24 hours.

Thereafter, rains would reduce over the entire Northeast India however the weather will not go absolutely dry, as few spells of patchy rains would continue in view of the moisture supply from the Bay of Bengal.

As on September 25, all the regions of Northeast India remain highly rain deficient. Arunachal Pradesh has observed deficient rains to the tune of -31%, followed by Assam and Meghalaya -27% and Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura (NMMT) by -22%.
