Hyderabad is witnessing a mixed weather pattern on March 31, 2026, with rising temperatures alongside IMD-issued rain and thunderstorm alerts across Telangana.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), thundershowers, lightning, and gusty winds are expected to continue in Hyderabad till April 1, placing the city under a yellow alert.
Current Weather Pattern
The city is currently experiencing:
- Day temperatures between 36°C to 40°C
- Warm, slightly humid afternoons
- Possibility of sudden evening rain or thunderstorms
This kind of weather shift is typical for late March, where summer heat builds up but pre-monsoon activity begins.
What's Causing This Sudden Change?
The current weather fluctuation is being driven by local atmospheric instability combined with moisture movement, which creates the perfect conditions for short-lived thunderstorms. These are not long rainy spells but rather quick, intense bursts; often accompanied by winds and lightning.
What This Means for Hyderabad Today
For residents and travellers, this means planning the day a little differently. Mornings remain the most comfortable time to step out, while afternoons can feel harsh under direct sun. Evenings, although cooler, may come with sudden rain interruptions, so carrying essentials and planning flexible schedules is advisable.
Short Outlook
This brief spell of mixed weather is expected to continue till April 1, after which temperatures are likely to rise steadily again, marking a clearer onset of summer conditions in the city.
Final Take
This isn't peak summer yet, it's that in-between phase where Hyderabad feels both hot and unpredictable. Not extreme. Not stable. Just enough to remind you; summer is fully on its way.
