MP Weather Alert Issued

MP Weather Alert: Due to continuous weather systems, there have been fluctuations in the weather recently. After the passage of a Western Disturbance, the winds have turned northerly. Consequently, a drop of 5.6 degrees was recorded in the minimum temperature on Thursday. This resulted in mild coolness at night. It is noteworthy that the minimum temperature in April has reached 16.4 degrees after 18 years.

Typically, the minimum temperature in this month ranges between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. The drop in temperature provided relief from the heat at night. However, an increase in temperature is expected in the coming days. The weather in the city remained dry on Thursday.
