Weather System Analysis

Uttar Pradesh weather forecast shows the influence of:

• Cyclonic circulation over eastern regions is bringing moisture

• Western disturbance approaching from October 4 affecting northern areas

• Upper air systems supporting scattered thunderstorm development

• September 30: 37°C/25°C with partly cloudy sky and light rain at isolated places

• October 1: 36°C/25°C with mainly clear sky but scattered thunderstorms possible

• October 2: 35°C/24°C with partly cloudy conditions and decreasing rain chances

• October 3-5: 33-35°C/24°C with mainly clear skies returning as the monsoon fully withdraws

Agricultural and Public Impact

Uttar Pradesh rains are expected to benefit paddy cultivation and provide relief from the oppressive heat and humidity. UP weather update suggests this brief rainfall spell will be particularly beneficial for:

• Late-season rice crops require additional moisture

• Agricultural operations that were hampered by excessive heat

• Public relief from temperatures that have remained 2-5°C above normal

Farmers are advised to take advantage of this final monsoon spell for completing harvesting operations and preparing fields for Rabi crops. The rainfall is expected to be light to moderate without causing waterlogging or agricultural damage.

Uttar Pradesh weather today marks a transitional period where the state experiences the last active phase of the southwest monsoon before post-monsoon weather establishes across the region by mid-October.
