The mercury rose slightly in
northern states, with Barmer in Rajasthan sizzling at 42.3
degrees Celsius even as the weatherman predicted heavy rains
in the national capital tomorrow.
Back-to-back rains in the national capital have halted
the rise of the mercury to some extent. It had a high of 37.6
degrees Celsius and a low of 29 degrees Celsius.
Humidity, however, gave the residents a tough time. The
weatherman said heavy rains are likely in the city tomorrow.
A cyclonic circulation over the north Bay of Bengal led
to heavy rains in Odisha. The MeT office said more showers
will occur in the coastal state over the next 48 hours.
The weatherman informed the state government of the
possibility of heavy rainfall in Puri, where Lord Jagannath's
annual rath yatra festival will be celebrated tomorrow.
During the last 12 hours, Puri gauged 52.8 mm of rains.
Rains drenched a few places in north Odisha and one or two
places in south Odisha.
The MeT centre in Bihar said forecast thunderstorm and
rain in most parts of the state tomorrow.
High humidity troubled people in many places today. Gaya
was the hottest place in the state at 39.6 degrees Celsius.
The maximum temperature in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan,
Haryana and Punjab, which received rains over the last two-
three days, was recorded below the season's average at most of
the places.
Most of northwest India has already received more than
average rainfall due to good pre-monsoon activity.
Several places in Punjab and Haryana recorded the maximum
temperature between 32 and 39 degrees Celsius. Hisar in
Haryana was the hottest place in the region at 38.6 degrees
Celsius.
Pre-monsoon rains gave some much-needed relief to people
in parts of Rajasthan.
Jaisalmer, however, sweltered under a blazing,
unremitting sun and registered a maximum of 42.3 degrees
Celsius. Barmer, Churu, Sriganganagar and Bikaner recorded the
mercury at 42, 41.5, 40.4 amd 40 degrees Celsius respectively.
