According to the weather forecast department, isolated heavy rainfall is very likely over Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Sikkim, East Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Chhattisgarh over the next 24 hours due to the influence of a low-pressure area over southeast Uttar Pradesh and a cyclonic circulation over Bangladesh.
