BHOPAL: A spell of light showers lashed the state capital provided instant relief from heat on Friday. But later on, it enhanced the humidity. Bhopal recorded 30.4mm rainfall by the evening on Friday. Similarly, Raisen recorded 24mm rainfall and Jabalpur recorded 7mm. Satna recorded 5mm, Sidhi 1mm etc.

Chanderi recorded 40mm and Ishagarh recorded 30mm rainfall in the last 24 hours. Similarly, Damoh, Chhattarpur, Mungawali, Maihar, Amarkantak, Ashoknagar, Pushparajgarh each recorded 20mm rain fall. Jabalpur, Hata, Kolaras and Dindori each recorded 10mm.

Bhopal recorded a maximum temperature of 39.1 degree Celsius while it recorded a minimum temperature of 28 degree Celsius. Indore recorded a maximum temperature of 37.8 degree Celsius while it recorded a minimum temperature of 26.2 degree Celsius.

As per the meteorological department, the reason for these rains can be attributed to the trough that is extending from Northwest Rajasthan up to Bangladesh across North Madhya Pradesh and North Chhattisgarh.

As this trough is expected to persist for some more time, light rain may continue in some parts of Madhya Pradesh and most parts of Chhattisgarh. Moreover, due to scanty rainfall, heat wave conditions are expected to make a comeback in many parts of Madhya Pradesh.
