The weather department said light rain with thunder may occur at one or two places in northern districts such as Araria, East Champaran, Kishanganj, Madhubani, Sheohar, Sitamarhi, and Supaul. These showers may bring temporary relief from the heat.

However, Patna and many parts of southern Bihar will continue to face hot and dry conditions. Strong western winds are expected to keep temperatures high in these regions.

On Friday, Dehri recorded the highest temperature in the state at around 44°C. Patna also remained very hot, with temperatures crossing 40°C.

Weather experts said moisture from the Bay of Bengal may trigger thunderstorms and light rainfall in parts of North Bihar until April 29. Where rain occurs, temperatures may drop slightly, offering some relief from the heat.

According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), many districts experienced strong winds, lightning, and light rainfall during the storm. After the thunderstorm passed, clouds continued to cover the sky in many places, which helped reduce daytime temperatures.

Meteorologists say the weather changed due to moisture and atmospheric instability over eastern India. Wind speeds during the storm reached around 30–40 km per hour in some areas. Officials advised residents to stay cautious during lightning activity.

The Bihar Weather Update also suggests that cloudy conditions may continue in parts of the state over the next few days. Light rain or isolated thunderstorms remain possible in northern and eastern districts.

Meanwhile, temperatures in cities like Patna are expected to stay around the mid-30°C range, slightly lower than earlier forecasts because of cloud cover.

Cold westerly winds continue to blow over the state, keeping daytime temperatures much lower than normal. Many areas are experiencing biting cold even during the afternoon, while mornings remain extremely chilly.

Dense fog has reduced visibility in parts of north and central Bihar. Roads, railways, and air travel are facing delays due to poor visibility during early morning and late-night hours. Drivers are advised to move slowly and use fog lights where possible.

The weather department said there may be little change in temperatures over the next few days. Cold day conditions are likely to continue, especially in districts under the orange alert.

Health officials have advised people to wear warm clothes and avoid unnecessary outdoor activities, especially the elderly and children. Farmers have also been asked to protect crops from cold stress.

Authorities urged residents to follow weather updates closely and take safety precautions until conditions improve.
