As monsoon progresses in the Indian mainland, the MeT department has flagged several regions across the length and breadth of the nation to prepare for the approaching rain onslaught. As per reports, thunderstorms with lightning and gusty winds (speed reaching 30-40 kmph) are very likely to envelop isolated regions over Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh & Delhi.

Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Gangetic West Bengal, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram & Tripura, coastal & north interior Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal are also on the trade radar. Lightening and isolated rains can soak up these regions as well. Meanwhile, dust storms, thunderstorms along with lightning are in store for Rajasthan, the weather update highlighted.
