LUCKNOW: The day temperatures dipped further on Wednesday due to partly cloudy sky. The state Met department has predicted similar conditions on Thursday as well with possibility of one or two spells of light rain.
The maximum temperature on Wednesday was 25.6 degree Celsius, 1.2 degrees below normal, and the minimum temperature was 13.8 degree Celsius, 3.1 notches above normal.
State Met director JP Gupta said that a cyclonic circulation over the Arabian Sea has caused heavy moisture incursion into the atmosphere in Uttar Pradesh, leading to cloudy sky.
“This moisture can precipitate into rain in some parts of the state on Thursday and Friday. In Lucknow, brief spells of light rain may occur on Thursday. Partly cloudy sky is expected on Friday as well. The weather will be clear from Saturday,” he added.
