The Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert for Lucknow over the next 48 hours, forecasting potential rainfall and thunderstorms throughout the week. Today's maximum temperature is predicted to reach 32.8°C, with a minimum of 25.8°C, while humidity levels are expected to remain high at 72%.

This comes after a week of consistent rainfall, which has kept temperatures below the 35°C mark, providing some relief from the summer heat. However, the high moisture content in the air has led to elevated humidity levels across the city, adding to the discomfort once again.
