As Maharashtra ushers in the summer season, the state is experiencing a rollercoaster of weather patterns, leaving residents bewildered with the unpredictable climate.
Varied Conditions Across Regions:
While Vidarbha and Marathwada witness a gradual retreat of unseasonal rain, the aftermath introduces changes that are confounding the locals. Western and northern Maharashtra, on the other hand, see a reduction in the morning chill, accompanied by rising temperatures as the day progresses.
Konkan Coast’s Humidity Challenge:
The Konkan Coast faces a unique challenge with heightened sunburn sensations despite a decrease in morning chill, owing to high humidity levels. In certain pockets like Niphad and Dhule, sudden temperature drops might catch residents off guard. The dissipation of a low-pressure area in neighbouring states signals clearer weather ahead.
Cold Wave in the North, Diverse Conditions Across States:
While a cold wave tightens its grip on northern states like Delhi, Haryana, and Punjab with heavy snowfall, Maharashtra experiences a diverse weather palette. The Meteorological Department forecasts accelerated rain and snowfall in the western Himalayas from March 6 to March 7. Simultaneously, cyclonic winds are forming in Punjab, extending towards Chhattisgarh, raising curiosity about their impact on overall weather conditions.
Transitioning Between Seasons:
This diverse weather scenario underlines the transitional phase between winter and summer. As Arunachal Pradesh braces for rain and snow, light showers are predicted for Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Kerala, and Odisha. Residents are advised to stay informed and adaptable to evolving conditions as Maharashtra navigates through this climatic transition.
