i) Scattered to fairly widespread light/moderate rainfall/snowfall with isolated thunderstorm & lightning activity very likely over Jammu-Kashmir-Gilgit- Baltistan-Muzaffarabad, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand during next 24 hours and isolated rainfall/snowfall during subsequent 2 days. Isolated hailstorm also likely over Uttarakhand during next 24 hours.

ii) Isolated to scattered light rainfall very likely over Punjab, Haryana-Chandigarh and West Uttar Pradesh during next 2 days. Isolated light rainfall very likely over Delhi on 25th & 26th, 2022.

iii) Isolated to scattered light/moderate rainfall with isolated thunderstorm & lightning very likely over Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha and West Bengal & Sikkim on 25th February, 2022.

iv) Scattered to fairly widespread rainfall with isolated thunderstorm & lightning over Arunachal Pradesh, Assam & Meghalaya and Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram & Tripura over the region on 25th & 26th February, 2022. Isolated hailstorm also likely over Assam & Meghalaya during next 24 hours.

3. A cyclonic circulation is likely to form over south Andaman Sea & neighbourhood around 27th February, 2022. Under its influence:

i) Widespread light/moderate rainfall with isolated heavy falls very likely over Andaman & Nicobar Islands on 27th & 28th February, 2022.

4. A fresh Western Disturbance is very likely to influence northwest India from 28th February, 2022. It is very likely to cause scattered to fairly widespread light/moderate rainfall/snowfall over Western Himalayan Region during 28th February to 02nd March, 2022 and isolated light rainfall over adjoining plains of northwest India on 01st & 02nd March, 2022.

Nicobar Islands during the first half of the week.

♦Movement of a Western Disturbance and its induced cyclonic circulation had caused isolated rainfall/snowfall activity over Western Himalayan Region on a few days and isolated rainfall/thunderstorm activity over adjoining plains on one or two days during the week; under the influence of an intense Western Disturbance which followed subsequently, fairly widespread to widespread rainfall/snowfall activity had occurred over Western Himalayan Region towards the end of the week along with isolated heavy rainfall/snowfall activity over Jammu Kashmir & Ladakh on a single day; passage of the system along with its induced cyclonic circulation had caused isolated rainfall/thunderstorm activity over Punjab & Haryana also during the same period; strong surface winds also had been reported over the plains of northwest India during the second half of the week.

♦Remanants of Western Disturbances had caused fairly widespread to widespread rainfall/thunderstorm activity over Northeast India on one or two days during the week; under their influence, isolated to scattered rainfall/thunderstorm activity had been reported over Arunachal Pradesh on the remaining days and over Assam & Meghalaya on three to four days; these systems have caused isolated to scattered rainfall/thunderstorm activity over parts of east India also with Sub Himalayan West Bengal & Sikkim reporting weather activity on most of the days and Odisha on three to four days during the week.

♦Under the influence of troughs /cyclonic circulations in the lower tropospheric levels, isolated rainfall /thunderstorm activity had occurred over extreme south Peninsula on three to four days and over Lakshadweep islands on one or two days during the week.
