The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said that there were reports of hailstorms in Bevahalli, a village near Kolar.
According to officials from IMD Bengaluru, the city will continue to get light rains in a few areas over the next two days.
"There is a trough starting from southern Tamil Nadu and this is moving through Karnataka onto Konkan. It will weaken in the next two days and after that, the city will return to normal summer weather," said A Prasad, who heads the IMD's meteorological centre in Bengaluru.
On average, Bengaluru gets close to 15 mm of rainfall in March and this increases to 65 mm by May.
