Weather of Odisha is notorious for hot weather conditions. However, the month of February when Pre-Monsoon doesn’t begin, weather becomes warm but not comfortable.
The state of Odisha has been witnessing dry weather conditions for quite a long time. While central and northern parts along with isolated pockets of East India have recorded some rains during the past few days, it has been Odisha which has continued to remain dry throughout.
