April 14, 2019 8:52 AM | Skymet Weather Team

At present a trough is extending from West Madhya Pradesh to Karnataka across eastern parts of Gujarat. Therefore, today we expect isolated thunderstorm activity or light rain over few eastern districts of the state.

However, on April 15 and 16, we expect the intensity and spread of weather activities to increase over parts of Gujarat. Thus, Gujarat region will receive scattered rains, whereas Saurashtra & Kutch will observe isolated rain and thundershower activities.

This will also be the first good spell of rain during the Pre-Monsoon season over Gujarat, as the state has been witnessing dry and hot weather conditions since the last many days. In fact, few pockets have been reeling under heat wave condition with maximum temperatures above 40˚C.

Now in the wake of these rains, the above normal temperatures over Gujarat will subside by 2˚C to 3˚C and may come below 40˚C, leading to relief from the ongoing hot weather conditions. Moreover, heat wave condition may also abate from few pockets of the state.

Thus, we can say that Pre-Monsoon weather activities have commenced over Gujarat. Now on and off thunderstorm and thundershowers will keep on occurring over parts of the state thereafter also. This was also the first good spell of Pre-Monsoon activities over the state.
