IMD predicts more rain over next 48 hours

The city is in for more rain over the next 48 hours, said weathermen, attributing this to the formation of a trough across the stretch between Karnataka and Jharkhand. 

On Friday, the maximum temperature in Hyderabad dropped to 39.2 degrees Celsius, two notches below last week's 41 degrees Celsius. The total average rainfall



recorded through the day stood at 3mm.

But much like Friday, the rains over the next two days too would be strictly localised, Met officials said. According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), the city will witness partly cloudy skies, with possibility of rain or thunder showers, accompanied by squall, towards evenings.
