Cloudy whole day in the capital, heavy rains in many districts of the state

Monsoon is not harsh in Rajasthan. The capital city Jaipur, saw a drizzle of Sawan on Saturday. Clouds made such a spectacle in the sky as if there was a stunning image of mountains on the canvas. On the Durgapura-Maharani Farm road, clouds presented such an illusion as if gigantic mountains stood all of a sudden here. Though in real there are not any mountains here, but the collection of clouds themselves formed such a sight in the sky. The sight was so relaxing for the eyes.

The weather in Jaipur had been unstable on Saturday. There had been light clouds throughout the day and drizzling happened at numerous locations. The sun had appeared for a while in the afternoon. The maximum temperature was recorded at 32.4 degrees Celsius. Many districts of the state received heavy rain.
