Karnataka Weather Update: Scorching Heat Returns! When Will Bengaluru And Other Cities See Rain Again?

As the scorching sun bears down on Karnataka, the northern interior, coastal, and southern interior districts are grappling with heightened temperatures yet again. Even though some regions got a little relief from rain over the last couple of days, the heat has come back, drying out the land.

Weather Forecast

Looking ahead, the meteorological department has forecasted sporadic rainfall across several districts, including Dakshina Kannada, Uttara Kannada, Udupi, Bagalkot, Belgaum, Dharwad, Gadag, Haveri, Vijayapura, Chamarajanagar, Chikkamagaluru, Hassan, Kodagu, Mysore, and Shivamogga.

However, regions such as Vijayanagar, Tumkur, Ramanagara, Mandya, Kolar, Davangere, Chitradurga, Chikkaballapur, Bangalore Rural, Bangalore City, Yadgir, Raichur, Koppal, Kalaburagi, and Bidar are expected to experience continued dry weather.

Recorded Rainfall and Temperature Trends

Recent rainfall has been recorded in areas like Bandipur, Kolar, HD Kote, Gubbi, Kunigal, Chittapur, Nagamangala, Mudigere, Chikkamagaluru, Kadur, MM Hills, Bhagamandala, and Bidar, although these amounts are not enough to significantly mitigate the rising temperatures.

Among the recorded temperatures, Kalaburagi topped the charts with a sweltering 39.0°C, while Dharwad recorded a cooler 19.5°C at night. As the state braces for dry conditions on March 27 and 28, rainfall is anticipated to return by March 29.
