As per Skymet Weather, the reason for this drop-in temperature can be associated with the cold winds that are blowing from the north and northeast direction. These winds are reaching over the state originating from the snow-clad mountains, thus resulting in the temperatures to plummet.
As of now, these winds are expected to continue over Gujarat for at least next two days. Because of this, the temperatures will continue to fall marginally. Thus, the nights are likely to remain cold over most parts of the state except over the coastal areas where the temperatures will remain cool and comfortable.
Thus, Gujarat will continue to reel under the cool and comfortable weather at least until December 20.
