The Meteorological Department has indicated there is a possibility of rain returning within the next 48 hours, as per local reports.
Residents noted that the rain and hail on Saturday had temporarily improved conditions, but the return of strong sunlight in the mornings and afternoons has made it noticeably warmer.
