As the city remains on high alert, the public has been advised to prepare for potential disruptions due to water pooling and slippery roads.

The city saw slight drizzles and scattered rains in northern parts of the city including Ameenpur, Bachupally, Serilingampally, Kukatpally, Nizampet, Miyapur and eastern parts like Uppal, Ramanthapur, Nagole and Habsiguda for a few minutes. The city recorded an average rainfall of 0.7 mm and temperatures declined from 32°C to 29°C on Tuesday.
