Finally, monsoon revives<br />

JAIPUR: After a long dry spell, the southwest monsoon revived in the state with several parts<br />

receiving mild to moderate showers on Sunday.<br />

The morning was hot and sultry but by evening dark clouds hovered above the cityscape. Various<br />

parts of Jaipur witnessed moderate showers in the evening.<br />

Water-logging and traffic snarls were reported at Chhoti Chaupar, Chaura Raasta, Statue Circle, MI<br />

Road, Raja Park, Jhotwara and Murlipura areas.<br />

The mercury dipped by several notches and the maximum temperature was recorded at 29 degrees<br />

Celsius post rainfall.<br />

As the weather turned pleasant, Jaipurites too ventured out and thronged various hangout joints.<br />

According to the Met office, Jaipur recorded a rainfall of 6 mm till 8.<strong>30</strong> pm.<br />

Attributing the revival of monsoon to the active northerly winds and upper air cyclonic circulation,<br />

the Met said that the ongoing spell will result in mild to moderate showers in eastern and western<br />

parts of the state over the next few days.<br />

The weatherman forecasts adequate rainfall in the third and final spell of the southwest monsoon in<br />

the state. Various parts in the southern and eastern Rajasthan are likely to receive good rainfall in the<br />

coming week.<br />

On Sunday, Kota, Baran, Jhalwar, Karuali and Sawai Madhopur districts also recorded moderate<br />

showers.<br />

Shergarh and Ramganj Mandi areas in Kota district witnessed a maximum rainfall of 7 cm. Rajgarh<br />

in Churu and Manoharthana in Jhalawar districts recorded 6cm rainfall.<br />

Many isolated places in the state witnessed a rainfall varying between 1 and 4 cm.<br />
