Parts of Mysuru including the city whose temperature was constantly soaring above 37 degrees Celsius for the last few weeks, received its first spell of rain since more than three months, on Thursday.
It was another day with high temperature and humidity till late in the evening after which there was a slight cloud build-up followed by short spell of rain.
Though it threatened to rain heavily, the spell lasted around 10 minutes and was over before it could douse the ambient temperature and did not provide much relief from the searing heat.
