Heavy Rain to Continue Across Uttar Pradesh, East Likely Intense

Uttar Pradesh is a big state in India.

It has been raining a lot there.

Rain is very important for farmers, but too much rain can cause problems.

The weather scientists, called the Indian Meteorological Department, measure how much rain falls.

On Monday, some places got very heavy rain.

The scientists say the rain will continue for the whole week.

Eastern parts of the state will probably get the most rain.

The rain is happening because of a storm system near the Bay of Bengal.

Even though it is raining a lot now, the state still has less rain than normal for this season.

People should be careful because there may be thunderstorms and lightning.
