Mercury goes up again

May 25, 2016 12:00 am | Updated September 12, 2016 08:25 pm IST - Bengaluru:

With cyclone Roanu’s influence wearing off in the city, mercury is heading northwards again. While the maximum temperature had come down to 27.6 degrees Celsius on Thursday following heavy rains, it shot up to 34 degrees on Tuesday.

S.M. Metri, director, Meteorological Centre, Bengaluru, said there was no pressure trough influence in the region and this had led to a clear sky, leading to temperatures going up. The forecast for the city predicts clear sky and possible rise in temperatures over the next week, before monsoon hits the State, which is likely by June 10. “There is one trough being formed from Andhra Pradesh coast to Comorin. But, it is likely to take several days before it influences the city,” Mr. Metri said.
