According to Skymet Weather, the tale of dry weather is likely to continue over the entire state of Maharashtra. The coastal stations of the state may witness a rise in the temperatures in the next 24 hours. The patchy cloudy sky is likely to prevail over the region. Thereafter, North Konkan and Goa region may witness hot weather conditions.
However, as far as Madhya Maharashtra, Vidarbha and Marathwada regions are concerned, the sky may become partly cloudy. By February 27, parts of Madhya Maharashtra and some parts of Vidarbha may witness light rain and thundershowers that may continue until March 1.
Temperatures may not register any significant fluctuations. Moreover, Skymet Weather also reiterates that this is the favorable period for hailstorm activities and thus chances of isolated hailstorm over North Madhya Maharashtra and Vidarbha cannot be ruled out.
