Thunderstorms and Lightning Rains Expected in the Coming Days

The southwest monsoon is expected to hit the Kerala coast tomorrow, marking the beginning of the rainy season. According to weather officials, it will enter Rayalaseema by the 5th and gradually spread across the South Coastal Andhra region by the 10th. By the 15th, the monsoon is likely to cover the entire state of Andhra Pradesh. Over the next week, temperatures are expected to remain within normal levels, bringing some relief from recent heat conditions.

In the following five days, several regions may experience thunderstorms accompanied by lightning and rainfall. However, officials clarified that the intensity of summer heat does not necessarily indicate heavier rainfall during the monsoon season. Weather department officer Jagannath Kumar stated that there is no direct link between the severity of summer and the volume of rainfall expected this year.
