A trough runs from north interior Karnataka to north interior Odisha in lower tropospheric levels and there is a cyclonic circulation over south Konkan in lower tropospheric levels, under the influence of which, the IMD said, there would be scattered to fairly widespread light/moderate rainfall very likely over coastal Andhra Pradesh till January 16 and isolated to scattered light/moderate rainfall over Marathwada, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh, and Telangana on Saturday.

Two fresh Western Disturbances are very likely to affect northwest India, the first from January 16, which is likely to cause isolated to scattered precipitation on January 16 and 17; while the second would be from January 18 and is likely to cause light/moderate scattered to fairly widespread precipitation over Western Himalayan Region and light isolated to scattered rainfall over adjoining plains for subsequent 2-3 days.
The IMD said there would be no significant change in minimum temperatures in northwest India during the next three days and rise by 2-3 degrees Celsius thereafter. It also said, there would be no significant change in minimum temperatures over east India during the next three days and fall by 2-3 degrees Celsius thereafter.
