People in Mumbai and adjoining areas including parts of Maharashtra on Thursday continued to witness hot weather

Meanwhile, amid rising heat in parts of the state, rains lashed Maharashtra's Nagpur district on Thursday morning

The downpour in Nagpur is likely to continue for the next three days in various districts of Vidarbha region, MeT officials said

The showers led to a dip in mercury in different areas of Vidarbha where temperatures were hovering over 40 degrees Celsius

An official from the India Meteorological Department's (IMD) regional office here said the region is witnessing rains due to wind discontinuity and upper air cyclonic circulation over central India

The IMD has forecast moderate rainfall in east Vidarbha and possibility of hailstorm and intense rainfall at isolated places in Nagpur

Thunderstorm with lightning, gusty winds (with speed reaching 40-50 kmph) and light to moderate rainfall are very likely at isolated places in Akola, Buldhana, Bhandara, Chandrapur, Gadchiroli, Gondia, Washim, and Yavatmal in the next three days, the IMD said

There is also a possibility of hailstorm, thunderstorm and lightning with gusty winds in Amravati, Wardha and Nagpur districts of Vidarbha on Thursday, the IMD said, adding the thunderstorm and lightning will continue for the next three days
