सप्टेंबर महिन्याच्या पहिल्या २ आठवड्यात राज्यात सर्वत्र चांगला पाऊस झाला व त्यामुळे मुंबई आणि पुणे शहरांना पाणीपुरवठा करणाऱ्या धरणांमध्ये पुरेसा पाणी साठा आहे. 

पुढचे ३-४ दिवस राज्यातील अंतर्गत भागात पावसाचे प्रमाण कमी राहील, पिकांसाठी ही पावसाची विश्रांती उपयोगी ठरेल. 

कोकण आणि पश्चिम घाट परिसरात पावसाच्या हलक्या ते मध्यम सरी अपेक्षित आहेत.

साधारण सोमवार २० सप्टेंबर पासून राज्यात पावसाचे प्रमाण पुन्हा वाढण्याची शक्यता आहे, विशेषतः विदर्भ प्रदेशात. याचे कारण म्हणजे बंगालच्या उपसागरात ओदिशा/पश्र्चिम बंगालच्या किनारपट्टी जवळ आणखी एक कमी दाबाचे क्षेत्र (BB-12) १८/१९ सप्टेंबर रोजी निर्माण होण्याची शक्यता आहे व ते साधारण पश्चिम/वायव्य दिशेस सरकुन पुन्हा एकदा देशाच्या पूर्व व मध्य भागात सोमवार २० तारखेपासून पासून पावसाचे प्रमाण वाढू शकते.

The Gujarat Region,specially South (Surat/Bharuch), will see increase in rainfall from Monday 20th.and moving in Saurashtra from 21st.

ગુજરાત પ્રદેશ, ખાસ કરીને દક્ષિણ (સુરત/ભરૂચ), 20 મી સોમવારથી વરસાદમાં વધારો જોવા મળશે.21 મીએ સૌરાષ્ટ્રમાં
