After the monsoon withdrew, temperatures in Rajasthan have risen sharply, and the state’s meteorological department has issued a rain alert for September 27‑28.
The monsoon season has officially drawn to a close across Rajasthan, leaving behind a noticeable surge in daytime temperatures. Meteorologists note that the state is now experiencing heat levels that exceed the typical September averages, prompting concerns among residents and farmers alike.
The Rajasthan State Disaster Management Authority (RSDMA) has issued a short‑term forecast indicating scattered to moderate rainfall on September 27 and 28. The bulletin suggests that cloud cover will move in from the southwest, bringing relief to most districts, though the intensity may vary locally.
Officials advise the public to stay hydrated, limit outdoor activities during peak heat hours, and keep an eye on local weather updates. The anticipated showers are expected to provide some respite to agriculture, especially for crops awaiting post‑monsoon moisture, while also moderating the extreme heat for urban areas.
