People staying in Rajasthan have been waiting for some good showers that can give them some respite from the prevailing hot weather conditions. In fact, rains have remained absent from pouring over the desert state of the country from quite a long time now.

Though a few spells did show up in a few districts of Rajasthan a couple of days but did not bring any comfortable weather conditions for the residents of Rajasthan. Though as per the weathermen, dust storms along with light rainy spells are seen marching towards the state.

As per Skymet Weather, a Western Disturbance can be marked over Jammu and Kashmir and an induced cyclonic circulation is also seen over central parts of North Rajasthan and Haryana.

In the wake of this weather system, isolated dust storms along with light rainy spells are expected to occur over the northern and eastern parts of Rajasthan tomorrow night.
