Jaipur, November 2 (Udaipur Kiran) — A new western disturbance is expected to become active over Rajasthan, bringing light to moderate rainfall accompanied by thunder in parts of Jodhpur, Udaipur, Ajmer, Jaipur, Bharatpur, and Kota divisions on November 3 and 4. According to the Meteorological Centre Jaipur, partial cloud cover is also likely in some areas of the Bikaner division.
On Saturday, Jaisalmer recorded the highest daytime temperature at 36.1°C, while Phalodi had the warmest night at 22.4°C. Jaipur’s maximum temperature was 31°C and minimum 19.7°C, showing a slight dip in night temperature.
Radheshyam Sharma, Director of the Meteorological Centre Jaipur, said that from November 5 onwards, most parts of the state are expected to remain dry for a week. Due to the effect of northerly winds, the minimum temperature is likely to drop by 2–4 degrees Celsius. He added that the low-pressure system over the Arabian Sea has weakened into a well-marked low-pressure area.
This year, Rajasthan witnessed record-breaking rainfall in October, mainly due to a depression system over the Arabian Sea and consecutive western disturbances. The state received 56.6 mm of rain in October—well above the usual average of 10.6 mm—breaking a 27-year record. The last highest rainfall for the month was 67.3 mm in 1998.
Bhilwara and Chittorgarh districts recorded the highest single-day rainfall on October 27, setting new records. Due to the heavy rainfall, several major dams, including Bisalpur (Tonk), Bhimsagar (Jhalawar), and Udaysagar (Udaipur), were opened to release excess water for the first time in October.
