Cyclonic Circulation
A cyclonic circulation is active over Gangetic West Bengal and adjoining Bangladesh at 0.9 km above sea level. Additionally, a trough line extends from southeast Uttar Pradesh to Odisha via Chhattisgarh at the same height. This system is pulling a lot of moisture from the Bay of Bengal, creating perfect conditions for storms across the state.
