IMD warns of persistent heatwave in north Telangana with soaring temperatures

Heatwave conditions are set to intensify across northern parts of Telangana over the next two days, with maximum temperatures expected to range between 41℃ and 44℃ in several districts, according to K. Nagaratna, Head of the Meteorological Centre, India Meteorological Department (IMD), Hyderabad.

In a video message on Monday, April 27, Ms Nagaratna said prevailing synoptic conditions indicate the presence of a trough extending from Madhya Pradesh to the Comorin region, passing through interior Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. Coupled with north-westerly winds blowing across Telangana, these conditions are expected to drive heatwave activity, particularly in the northern and north-eastern districts.
