ALOR SETAR, March 29 (Bernama) -- Several areas in Kedah, including Kota Setar, Kubang Pasu and Kuala Muda, received rain today after months of hot and dry weather.

Kedah Meteorological Office director Muhammad Khalil Abdul Aziz said almost all districts in the state, except Langkawi and Bandar Baharu, were expected to experience rain or thunderstorms this evening, and that it was in line with the inter-monsoon phase, which typically brings rain or thunderstorms in the evening.

“Several areas and districts saw rain today as forecast by the Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia),” he said when contacted today, and advised the public to remain alert to weather changes and refer to MetMalaysia’s website or social media platforms for the latest weather updates.

Meanwhile, a resident in Titi Gajah here expressed his relief when it rained in his neighbourhood.

“Alhamdulillah, it rained in Titi Gajah today. Although it only lasted a few minutes, it felt truly refreshing as it helped reduce the heat,” he said.
