Rain brings respite to residents of Hyderabad

Isolated Rainfall occurred in parts of  Andhra Pradesh while Hyderabad  experienced  thundershowers giving some respite  to the residents  from  searing heat on Tuesday.

Scattered Rainfall will occur in the next one or two days in some parts of Rayalaseema and south coastal Andhra Pradesh (SCAP). In view of strong southwesterly winds along the west coast, an off shore trough extending from Karnataka to Kerala coast has developed and as a result of it, fairly widespread Rain activity is expected and the southwest monsoon might further advance into parts of Rayalaseema and south coastal Andhra Pradesh.

The Rain which lashed Hyderabad on Tuesday evening  resulted in heavy water logging and traffic jams at several places. The  power supply was also affected in many areas due to heavy downpour in the evening.

Heavy downpour also resulted in short-circuit of electricity wires leading to power failure in several parts of the city.
