GUWAHATI: A trough brings southwesterly winds into Northeast India to produce rain or snow with isolated thunderstorms on Monday and Tuesday, The Weather Channel reported.
A notable weather event in the week is an active western disturbance that will traverse over northern portions of the subcontinent from Wednesday to this weekend.
This western disturbance will bring southwesterly winds providing moisture from the Arabian Sea and also interact with low-level southeasterly winds from the Bay of Bengal.
