CG Weather News: Possibility of light rain in some places

A clear difference is visible between the day and night temperatures in different parts of the state. Rajnandgaon recorded the highest maximum temperature at 39.0 degrees Celsius, while Ambikapur recorded the minimum temperature at 16.7 degrees Celsius. The weather currently appears stable, but light, localized activities are ongoing, signalling upcoming changes.

According to the Meteorological Department, a trough is active from Gangetic West Bengal to Southern Chhattisgarh, extending up to about 1.5 kilometres above sea level.

There will be light sunshine during the day, while partial cloud cover may appear in the afternoon or evening.

Overall, the weather in the state is currently calm, but clear indications of a change in weather are visible with light rain and strong winds in the coming days.

Why is the weather changing?

The weather in Chhattisgarh and central India changes rapidly at the end of March. Moisture from the Bay of Bengal brings rain and clouds. Cyclonic circulations cause sudden thunderstorms and strong winds. At the beginning of the summer season, there is a significant difference between day and night temperatures. This change indicates the beginning of the summer season, during which the temperature gradually increases, and light rains provide respite intermittently.
