Heat Wave Conditions to Continue over Peninsular India

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Heat Wave Conditions  continue to prevail over many places of Peninsular India and East India as the mercury touched 40°C for the first time in 2016 in India with Bhubaneswar becoming the first place in the country to record higher than 40°C for the year.  Many places in Andhra & Telengana like Nizamabad, Ramagundam, Tune & Nandigama were not far away as they recorded more than 38°C yesterday.

Going by models it is going to be a couple of days before these heat wave conditions are expected to subside with another extremely hot day ahead for most parts of Peninsular & East India.  While yesterday saw temperatures spike in a few places today we could see fairly wide spread increase in temperatures with pretty much entire Andhra & Telengana expected to record more than 36°C across the region with a few places in Telengana & adjoining Odisha expected to touch 40°C once again.
