Key areas such as Malakpet received 9.3 mm of rainfall, followed by LB Nagar with 4.5 mm, and Uppal with 4.3 mm.

areas and avoid taking shelter under trees during thunderstorms.

For Hyderabad, moderate rainfall is expected to continue, providing some respite from the heat. The Telangana State Development Planning Society (TGDPS) reported cumulative average rainfall across various circles in the city with Malakpet, Santosh Nagar and Amberpet seeing the highest figures.
