“The dry weather condition will continue for the next two to three days with no sign of instant relief. The temperature in Ranchi is likely to be around 40 degree Celsius. Due to the influence of westerly disturbance, there is no cloud formation and moisture supply, hence temperature will reel under 38 degree Celsius to 41 degree Celsius here in Capital City,” said Senior Scientist, Ranchi MET Observatory Centre, RS Sharma.
