The city of Pune has seen good rainfall activities yesterday. These rains had been widespread in nature and moderate in intensity. Moreover, the maximum temperature also witnessed a drop of two degrees Celsius and settled at 37.7 degrees, which is still four degrees above the normal levels.
In the last 24 hours from 8:30 am on Sunday, Pune saw 31 mm of rain along with rainfall being observed in other parts of the state of Maharashtra as well. Mumbai also saw some rains last night.
These rains can be attributed to the potential Cyclone which is brewing in the Arabian Sea. The system was a Well Marked Low Pressure Area yesterday, which did intensify into a Depression in the morning. This system will move northwestwards, running parallel to the Maharashtra Coast. There is a high probability of the system intensifying into a Cyclone in the next 24 to 48 hours.
Thus, in view of this system, rain in Pune will continue today and tomorrow, typically of the Pre Monsoon characteristic, being seen mostly in the evening hours accompanied with thunderstorm and lightning as well.
These rains may result in some more drop in the maximum temperatures which will give some relief from the heat that Pune has been battling.
