Unseasonal rain continues in MP

Bhopal, May 22 (UNI) Unseasonal rain, in the usually-scorching month of May, has weakened the summer's grip over Madhya Pradesh.

A weather centre official said an upper air cyclonic circulation over the state's north-eastern part, coupled with moisture-laden winds, was causing the precipitation. Day temperature plummetted by about five notches in most parts of Madhya Pradesh and hovered between 34 and 39 degree Celsius while the minimum was in the 22-26 degree Celsius range.

The state capital experienced a steady drizzle this evening. The high and low were 34.6 and 22.5 degree Celsius here. Bhopal recorded 39 mm precipitation over the past four days while the total figure since March is 164 mm.

Thundershowers are likely at some stations over the next 24 hours. The world-renowned tourist destination Khajuraho and Guna recorded 1 cm overnight rain.
