Weather Hyderabad: Rain and Thunderstorms Expected

Hyderabad is expected to experience a partly cloudy sky with one or two spells of rain or thundershowers on March 16, 2026. The temperature is projected to range between a low of 22°C and a high of 37°C, with humidity levels fluctuating between 41 percent and 76 percent.

In the immediate aftermath of the recent heatwave, which saw temperatures consistently hovering between 36 and 40 degrees Celsius, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow warning for thunderstorms and gusty winds across several districts in Telangana.

Thunderstorm activity is anticipated to continue until March 21, with multiple locations in Hyderabad likely to witness thunderstorms accompanied by lightning and gusty winds. This weather pattern is expected to bring a much-needed respite from the sweltering heat.

Furthermore, temperatures across Telangana are likely to drop by 4 to 5 degrees Celsius over the next few days, with a gradual fall of 2 to 4 degrees Celsius in maximum temperatures expected during this period. Wind speeds may reach between 30 to 40 kmph, contributing to the overall weather changes.

The IMD’s warnings and forecasts come as a relief to residents who have been enduring the early summer heat. The expected rainfall and cooler temperatures could provide a significant change in weather conditions.

As the situation develops, local authorities and meteorological services are closely monitoring the weather patterns. Residents are advised to stay updated on the latest forecasts and take necessary precautions during the thunderstorms.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the exact timing and intensity of the thunderstorms, but the IMD’s predictions suggest a notable shift in the weather for Hyderabad and surrounding areas.
