Due to this change in weather, temperatures dropped by 4 to 6 degrees Celsius below normal. Chittorgarh recorded a maximum temperature of 35.2 degrees Celsius, while temperatures remained well below normal in Jodhpur, Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Churu, Jaipur, Udaipur, and Ajmer. While rainfall activity may decrease slightly in the state on April 5th, this relief will not last long.
According to weather experts, Western Disturbances are not typically so active in March and April. But this time, they remain concentrated in the northwestern plains. Moisture from the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal has further strengthened the system, creating conditions for intense storms and rain.
According to experts, rising temperatures during the day energize the atmosphere. This is why storms, rain, and hailstorms intensify in the afternoon. Overall, the weather in the state will continue to change over the next few days, and people need to be cautious of storms, rain, and hail.
