Ahmedabad Rains

According to meteorologists at Skymet, moderate to heavy rains are expected to continue in Gujarat region for another 24 to 48 hours.

Due to the active Monsoon surge, most parts of South-coastal Gujarat are receiving heavy rainfall already.

In the last 24 hours from 8.30 am on Friday, the coastal city of Surat has received a whopping 116 mm of rain. On August 1 as well, the city had received a heavy downpour of 40 mm.

As the Monsoon surge is likely to continue along the coast, good rainfall will prevail in Surat, for the next few days. Moreover, Surat has already achieved its normal rainfall figure for the month. As of now, the city has received 779 mm of rains against the normal of 780.1 mm. As more rain is forecast in the city, the surplus is only going to rise further.

Same is the case for the city of Ahmedabad where on and off light rains are going on. The rainfall intensity is likely to increase marginally during the next 24 to 48 hours. Mainly light rain with a few moderate spells is expected in Ahmedabad. Comfortable weather conditions will prevail in the city with strong winds and cloudy sky. Temperatures will remain below normal.

In the last 24 hours, Ahmedabad has observed light isolated rain. Though, on August 1, it had recorded 41 mm of rains.

Rain amount in the city is deficient to the tune of 39%. As of now, it has received 224 mm of rain against the normal of 368 mm. As we expect these rains to continue for a few days more, the rain deficiency in the city may reduce marginally in the days to come.
