Meanwhile, a north-south trough has also stretched its arms from Bangladesh to the Bay of Bengal. The combination of these systems will create some exceptional precipitation over the seven sister states this week.
In line with these predictions, light to moderate amounts of rain or snow is on the cards over most parts of Arunachal, Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura from Monday to Thursday (April 22-25).
The spell is expected to peter out after this, only affecting a few areas of these states (excluding Arunachal) from Friday to Saturday (April 26-27).
