As per the meteorological department, drop in temperature is attributed to combined effect of two troughs– extending from West Rajasthan up to North Madhya Pradesh and another one that extends from eastern Uttar Pradesh to Karnataka across East MP. The combined effect of both these weather systems is expected to cause fairly widespread rain and thundershower activities over many parts of MP.
