Nagpur: The city witnessed a mix of rain and sunshine on Saturday, as several areas experienced intense spells for brief periods. The weather remained pleasant, with low humidity levels adding to the comfort.
According to the forecast, the city is likely to see light rains over the next few days.
In Vidarbha, Gondia recorded the highest rainfall at 37.2mm, following isolated heavy spells in the region. Other areas saw varied rainfall patterns, ranging from light to moderate intensity.
The
India Meteorological Department
(IMD) reported that monsoon activity was normal across Vidarbha. Rainfall distribution was widespread, with heavy showers at isolated places and light to moderate rainfall in most parts of the region.
The department noted a significant drop in maximum temperatures across Vidarbha, bringing them to normal levels for the season. Minimum temperatures, however, showed no major changes and remained within the normal range.
Gondia also recorded both the highest and lowest temperatures of the day in Vidarbha — the highest maximum temperature at 32.6°C and the lowest minimum at 21.4°C.
With the monsoon maintaining its normal pattern, residents can expect intermittent showers and comfortable weather conditions in the coming days. The IMD's short-term outlook suggests that while intense rainfall will likely be limited to isolated areas, light rain will continue to keep temperatures moderate across the region.
The current conditions mark a welcome change from the hot and humid spells earlier this season, bringing relief to both urban and rural parts of Vidarbha.

Below-average monsoon leaves Visakhapatnam parched, thirsting for relief

This year's southwest monsoon has left Visakhapatnam facing a drought-like situation, with the rainfall received so far falling short of the seasonal average. According to data from the A.P. Water Resources Information & Management System (APWRIMS), eight mandals of Visakhapatnam district within the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC) limits have recorded an overall rainfall deficit of 18.45% between June 1 and August 10. The district received only 241.59 mm of rainfall against the normal 296.23 mm. While the India Meteorological Department (IMD) classifies this as 'normal' rainfall, it is still significantly below the long-term average for the region. Mandal-wise data shows Anandapuram received 259.34 mm (10.82% less than the average 290.81 mm), Bhimunipatnam 277.21 mm (minus 5.93%), Padmanabham 289.85 mm (minus 26.62%), Gajuwaka 198.59 mm (minus 19.52%), Pendurthi 227.26 mm (minus 21.56%), Pedagantyada 197.84 mm (minus 31.67%), Visakhapatnam Rural 231.48 mm (minus 21.11%), and Visakhapatnam Urban 202.49 mm (minus 24.98%). Some pockets, such as PM Palem and Bakkannapalem in Visakhapatnam Rural mandal, have not received any rainfall since the onset of the monsoon, barring showers in May. The prolonged dry spell has led to severe water scarcity in these localities. 'We managed water supply during the summer, but now the situation is worse due to the absence of rains since June. Our borewells have dried up, and we are depending entirely on water tankers. We desperately need abundant rainfall to recharge our borewells. This is unprecedented for a monsoon season in our area,' said B. Rambabu, treasurer of Sai Oak Dale Apartments in PM Palem. Meteorologists at the IMD Amaravati centre said a low-pressure area is likely to form over the northwest and adjoining west-central Bay of Bengal by August 13. If conditions are favourable, the system may bring some rainfall to the region.
