"Hyderabad: There appears to be no let-up for the city from the September showers, which continued for the third consecutive day. The weekend version on Saturday was quite strange, with some areas in the city reporting heavy rain and waterlogging, while areas not even a kilometre away saw just a drizzle, and in some areas, no rain at all.\r\n\r\nThe sporadic showers, which weather officials attributed to the low pressure area forming over the Central Bay of Bengal, were likely to continue for the next couple of days as well, officials said. As per the forecast from the Telangana State Development Planning Society, most parts of the city are likely to receive rainfall between 2.5 mm to 15.6 mm, while a few places might witness heavy downpours.\r\n\r\nOn Saturday till 9 pm, Kurmaguda in Saidabad mandal received the highest rainfall of 98.8 mm, followed by Asmanghad, which witnessed 92 mm rainfall.

The maximum temperature recorded on Friday in the city was 29.5 degree Celsius, whereas the minimum temperature recorded on Saturday morning was 22 degree Celsius.\r\n\r\nAccording to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecast, a low pressure is forming over central Bay of Bengal, and is likely to intensify into a depression, due to which the city will continue witnessing heavy showers for the next three to four days. The maximum temperature in the city is expected to be around 30 to 32 degree Celsius, while the minimum temperature will range between 21 and 23 degree Celsius.\r\n\r\nMeanwhile, the officials at IMD have issued a Yellow Alert for all districts of Telangana for Sunday. On Saturday, several districts including Yadadri Bhongir, Adilabad, Kamareddy, Nirmal and Rangareddy received moderate to heavy rainfall.
