After an early March heat surge, weather conditions across India are now improving.

Heat wave conditions had affected Gujarat, Maharashtra, Odisha, and Mumbai, with temperatures crossing 40°C unusually early. However, relief has set in as pre-monsoon activity increases.

North India’s hills have received fresh snowfall, especially in Himachal Pradesh, disrupting travel but boosting snow cover. More such activity is likely for the next week.

At the same time, thunderstorms and rain will spread across North, Central, and East India between March 18 and 22.

Northeast India will see intense weather, especially in Assam, Meghalaya, and nearby regions. Overall, temperatures are expected to dip slightly and remain stable, with no major extreme weather expected through March-end.
