Parts of Goa received very light rain on the night between Tuesday and Wednesday, even as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) indicated a change in weather conditions across southern India.  

According to IMD Goa, conditions are becoming suitable for the end of the Northeast monsoon over parts of south India over the next two days. The IMD also said that a subtropical westerly jet stream with core wind speeds of about 110 knots at a height of around 12.6 km above mean sea level is currently active over north-east India.  

In Goa, temperatures have remained high over the past few days. The maximum temperature has been around 33°C or more for the last three to four days, while the minimum temperature has risen to about 23°C.  

The state is likely to record a maximum temperature of around 34°C in the next 48 hours, with minimum temperatures expected to stay close to 23°C.  

IMD Goa has forecast dry weather in both North Goa and South Goa districts. It has also predicted light to moderate haze or mist at isolated places during the early morning hours till January 20.
