Current weather Conditions on 25th August 2010 @ 10.30 am.
The Low Pressure area over Westcentral Bay of Bengal and adjoining Coastal Andhra Pradesh, with associated Upper Air Cyclonic Circulation extending upto Mid-Tropospheric levels persists.
Surprisingly the Axis of Monsoon trough has again shifted towards Mizoram as per IMD 5.30 am. Bulletin which states that "the axis of Monsoon trough at mean sea level passes through Ferozepur, Karnal, Kanpur, Hazaribagh, Shantiniketan and thence Eastwards to Mizoram." Normally the Low Pressure System tracks along the Monsoon trough, so we have to see as to how things pan out for the next 24 hours as regards realignment of the Low with the Monsoon trough.
(Subesequently in their at 8.30 am. Bulletin IMD Says "The axis of monsoon trough at mean sea level passes through Anoopgarh, Dholpur, Sagar, Bramhapuri, centre of low pressure area and thence southeastwards to southeast Bay of Bengal." ) As expected the Axis of Monsoon trough has again aligned with the Low Pressure. Bolded part added at 4.00 pm.
