However, relief is on the horizon. A north-south trough extending from Telangana to Kerala, coupled with a low-pressure system, is expected to become active soon. This development will trigger light, scattered rain across the southern tip of the peninsula. Bengaluru may experience light showers as early as May 6th, with the main rainfall expected between May 7th and 11th. There is a possibility of isolated heavy downpours during this period.
Additionally, temperatures are expected to drop from May 7th onwards, providing a pleasant and cooler weekend on May 11th and 12th for Bengaluru residents.
