New Delhi: This time monsoon has shown its different style from the very beginning. Sometimes due to heavy rains and sometimes due to sudden clear weather, its speed kept changing continuously. Now that the monsoon is moving towards its last phase, instead of giving relief, the weather has taken a different turn. The effect of seasonal disturbances in the Bay of Bengal can be seen in many states including Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Jharkhand. The Meteorological Department has warned of heavy rain and strong winds in many areas on September 2. At some places the wind speed can reach 70 to 75 kilometers per hour.
