The southern districts of Kerala had a respite from the stifling summer heat with moderate to heavy spells of rainfall ushering in cooler weather on Friday.
Several places, including Thiruvananthapuram city, experienced thunderstorm activity triggered by a cyclonic circulation prevailing over the Kanyakumari region.
Most districts can expect light to moderate rainfall over the next few days. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has also issued a thunderstorm warning for the State.
