The Indian Meteorological Department on Monday predicted heavy rainfall accompanied by rainfall and thunderstorm in several districts in Telangana today night.

Districts like Siddipet, Sangareddy, Medak, Rajanna Sircilla, Jangaon, Karimnagar and Yadadri districts are likely to witness rainfall.

"Districts like Adilabad, Komarambheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Jagtial and Peddapalli districts may witness hailstorm on January 12," the IMD said.

Meanwhile, some parts of the state such as Yadadri Bhongir, Rajanna Sircilla and Jagtial, received light showers in the last 24 hours.
