The latest weather outlook for Rajasthan indicates that rain activity will ease while temperatures in the western districts of Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Barmer are expected to exceed 40°C.
The Indian Meteorological Department has issued a forecast for Rajasthan showing a gradual decline in rainfall across the state. The western districts of Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Barmer are expected to experience the most pronounced drop in rain activity over the next 48 hours.
At the same time, temperatures in these districts are projected to climb above 40°C, marking a continuation of the heat wave that has persisted since early May. Meteorologists warn that the combination of high heat and reduced precipitation could exacerbate water stress in the arid regions.
Authorities have advised residents to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activities during peak heat hours, and monitor local updates for any sudden weather changes. The forecast remains subject to revision as new data become available.
