Bhopal: A potential change in weather patterns may bring light rainfall to the western parts of Madhya Pradesh on November 27-28, attributed to a western disturbance. This marks the first November occurrence of rain, following a rise in temperatures.
Bhopal recorded a temperature of 32.3 degrees Celsius, with Damoh reporting 33 degrees Celsius. Similar conditions are expected on Monday, with some areas experiencing cloud cover due to an influence from a storm originating in the Bay of Bengal.
On Saturday, several cities in the state saw daytime temperatures surpassing 30 degrees Celsius, including Bhopal, Jabalpur, Khajuraho, Mandla, Rewa, Sagar, Satna, Sehore, Ujjain, Indore, Khandwa, Khargone, and Ratlam. Conversely, cities like Betul, Guna, Pachmarhi, Rajgarh, Shivpuri, Chhindwara, Narsinghpur, Nowgong, and Seoni registered temperatures between 27 and 29.9 degrees Celsius.
Night temperatures rose in various cities on Saturday and Sunday. Narsinghpur recorded a low of 18 degrees Celsius, Narmadapuram at 17.7 degrees Celsius, Indore at 17.5 degrees Celsius, Damoh at 17 degrees Celsius, Sehore at 17.2 degrees Celsius, Tikamgarh, and Seoni at 16 degrees Celsius, and Ujjain at 16.5 degrees Celsius. Pachmarhi experienced the lowest temperature at 10.8 degrees Celsius.
Despite the current weather shift, Meteorological Center experts suggest a rapid temperature drop is not expected in the coming week due to the influence of a western disturbance. This disturbance is projected to impact northern India around November 24 or 25, potentially causing light rain in some areas on November 26 or 27. Subsequently, a significant temperature drop is forecasted post-November 28.
