Thus, moderate showers at many parts with heavy rains at one or two places are likely over almost entire Maharashtra. Also, Vidarbha and Marathwada will receive very good rains.
Almost all the districts of Maharashtra are expected to receive rain of varied intensity during the next two to three days. These rains will help in decreasing the rainfall deficiency of Vidarbha and increase the rainfall surplus of other sub divisions of Maharashtra.
Cities including Jalna, Aurangabad, Ahmednagar, Pune, Nagpur, Akola, Amravati, Parbhani, Kolhapur, Bhira, Mahabaleshwar, and Mumbai will witness good rains during the aforementioned time frame. Due to this, temperatures will witness a drop resulting in pleasant weather over the state.
