Rainfall in Alwar led to a daytime maximum temperature fall of 6°C, making it cooler than the hill station Mount Abu, while Jaipur recorded a 3°C drop.
Recent showers in Alwar caused the daytime maximum temperature to plunge by 6°C, a sharp decline that left the city noticeably colder than the nearby hill station of Mount Abu. The sudden cooling was recorded shortly after the rain ended, catching residents off guard.
Mount Abu, typically known for its pleasant climate, now registers higher temperatures than Alwar for the first time this season, highlighting the impact of the localized rainfall.
In the state capital, Jaipur, temperatures also fell, though by a more modest 3°C, indicating a broader cooling trend across Rajasthan following the precipitation.
Meteorologists note that such temperature swings are common after heavy rain, as cloud cover and moisture reduce daytime heating. The cooler conditions are expected to persist through the evening before temperatures gradually rise again tomorrow.
