Delhi is likely to get some relief from the soaring temperatures as the India Meteorological Department has forecast thunderstorms with rain for the national capital on Wednesday, May 21. The minimum temperature is likely to settle around 28 degrees Celsius, while the maximum is expected to be about 39 degrees Celsius.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a ‘yellow’ alert on Monday, and forecast moderate rainfall in several districts of Maharashtra, including Mumbai, from May 19 to May 23.
The yellow alert has been issued for five days for Mumbai, Thane, Palghar, and Dhule. It is also valid for other districts of Maharashtra for a period ranging from one day to four days.
The IMD has estimated “thunderstorms accompanied by lightning, light to moderate rainfall, and gusty winds (40-50 kmph) at isolated places.”
A low-pressure area is likely to form over the same region around May 22, and thereafter, it might move northwards and intensify further.
Under the circulation’s influence, the rain activity over Maharashtra might increase over the next three days.
Met department official Shubhangi Bhute said, “There is a possibility of heavy rainfall with thunder at some places, accompanied by gusty winds reaching speeds of 30-40 kmph or possibly higher at isolated locations.”
