Weather Outlook for Gujarat and Mumbai
According to the IMD, the impact of the heat is most pronounced in Gujarat. Temperatures here are currently being recorded between 35 and 39 degrees Celsius. Strong, hot winds have disrupted daily life. In Mumbai, the humid heat—driven by moisture from the sea—has caused discomfort to residents. Although the actual temperature here hovers between 30 and 33 degrees, the *real feel* (perceived heat) appears to be significantly higher. **Possibility of Rain in These Regions**
According to the Meteorological Department, Rajasthan is expected to experience intermittent rainfall until April 1st. The weather pattern across the state is predicted to remain variable over the coming days. Furthermore, the department has issued a warning for intermittent rain, strong winds, and isolated hailstorms at various locations across the state, continuing through April 1st.

A ‘Yellow Alert’ has been issued for several districts, including Bikaner, Sri Ganganagar, Hanumangarh, Churu, Sikar, Jhunjhunu, Jaipur, and Alwar.
Relief from Rain in Southern States
The weather remains quite favourable in certain parts of South India. Pre-monsoon activities have already commenced in Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, and Andhra Pradesh. The IMD has forecast light rainfall accompanied by thunderstorms and strong winds in these states. Additionally, the movement of clouds in these regions is expected to lead to a noticeable drop in temperatures.
