Are you a resident of Uttar Pradesh planning to head out tomorrow? Well, it is advisable to take a look at the weather forecast for the different regions on Thursday. The India Meteorological Department has issued both a heatwave as well as a rain forecast for tomorrow.
Daytime weather across many parts of western Uttar Pradesh is likely to remain hot and humid. Residents of Meerut, Noida, Ghaziabad, Muzaffarnagar, Shamli, Saharanpur, Mathura and Agra can expect bright sunshine and strong winds. Weather conditions may change during the afternoon, with clouds gathering in some places and the possibility of light showers or drizzle offering some respite.
