Extremely hot weather condition has stretched its leg in almost the entire country. So much so, that even the northern hills of the country are also bearing the brunt of summers where the day temperatures are touching 30-degree above. Whereas, the plains are experiencing hot weather with the maximum mounting to mid-40’s.

The southern peninsular India is also facing similar weather conditions. Most states of South India are witnessing the temperatures settling close to or beyond 40°C thereby leading to hot and uneasy weather conditions.

On Wednesday, Hyderabad recorded the maximum at 40.5°C that settled 4 degrees above its monthly average of 35.9°C. The minimum temperatures also settled 3 degrees above its monthly mark of 21.5°C. In fact, from last few days, temperatures across the state's capital had been settling way above normal and close to 40°C.

As per Skymet Weather, the reason for this hot and dry weather prevailing in parts of Telangana including Hyderabad can be associated with the warm and moist southwesterly winds that are blowing from the Bay of Bengal over Telangana.

Furthermore, Skymet Weather predicts that similar weather condition is likely to prevail over the city and other districts of Telangana. Moreover, a marginal rise of one or two degrees in the maximums is also expected.

Other districts of Telangana also recorded close to or above 40°C temperatures. In the last 24 hours, Adilabad recorded 41.8°C, Nizamabad 40.8°C, and Nalgonda witnessed the day temperature settling at 40°C.

Hyderabad is prone to severe heatwave conditions during the summer season, beginning by the end of March. Last year, heatwave had claimed over 100 lives in the state capital itself. Meanwhile, the number was quite big across the state.

This year, weathermen has already predicted summers to exceptionally warm, with mercury soaring to new levels.
