Earlier a trough was extending from North Interior Karnataka to Tamil Nadu across South Interior Karnataka which was responsible for the showers over the region.
As per Skymet Weather, now a cyclonic circulation has developed over Lakshadweep area and a trough is extending from this system up to North Interior Karnataka. Therefore, we expect good rains to continue over South Interior Karnataka and isolated places over North Interior Karnataka. These pre Monsoon showers are expected to continue during the next two to three days.
In fact, Bengaluru and nearby districts of South Karnataka are also likely to witness good rains in coming days. As per weathermen, the occurrence of these showers will be confined to late afternoon and evening hours.
In wake of the heavy showers over Bengaluru, the minimum temperatures dropped by 2°C to 3°C. Meanwhile, the maximums are settling in mid-30s. In spite of these showers, the weather during the day would be warm and humid but the morning and nights would be comfortable.
