Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The monsoon season has been kind to Madhya Pradesh this year, with different districts experiencing rainfall exceeding the average.

The weather forecast for the next week predicts both heavy and light rainfalls throughout the state, as all three systems remain active. Senior meteorologist HS Pandey stated that rainfall is likely to persist in all parts of Madhya Pradesh.

Pandey highlighted the presence of a trough line across the state, along with two active cyclonic circulations. This indicates the likelihood of heavy rainfall for the next two to three days, followed by the possibility of continuous rainfall. Heavy rainfall is expected in regions such as Sagar, Shahdol, Jabalpur, and Rewa, while Bhopal, Indore, and Ujjain will experience light showers.

According to Dainik Bhaskar, some regions have witnessed rainfall as low as 3%, while others have reached an impressive 96%. Overall, the state has received 13% more rainfall than usual.

Heavy rainfalls have resulted in water inflow into major dams across the state, and if this trend continues, several dams may overflow by the first week of August.
