Light Rain and Winds Cause Slight Temperature Drop in Parts of Rajasthan

Parts of Rajasthan have experienced light rainfall, dust storms, and gusty winds, leading to a slight decline in temperatures amid ongoing heatwave conditions. Maximum temperatures are generally between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius, near normal levels, though some southwestern areas may reach 43-45 degrees. The India Meteorological Department attributes this weather to a western disturbance and easterly winds from the Bay of Bengal, forecasting continued thunderstorms and light rain over the next few days, providing partial relief from the heat.
