Cloudy conditions are being forecast for Hyderabad, the venue of an IPL cricket match this evening.
Scattered clouds are already visible as the Rajiv Gandhi stadium braces to host the match between the Deccan Chargers and the Delhi Daredevils at 4 p.m.
The proximity of a weather-making trough of lower pressure cutting across Andhra Pradesh in a north-south direction does not make it any easier to give the all-clear.
In fact, the India Meteorological Department assesses that there is a 60 per cent chance of a thundery development in the neighbourhood, not surprising given the pre-monsoon build-up.
The wind direction will shift from a north-westerly to a south-westerly direction, and the peninsular city falls within the cusp of the shift in the pattern of the winds.
This could provide for cloudy conditions, even as the relatively high humidity levels could take the mercury above the 40 deg Celsius-mark.
