State-wise Heatwave Forecast

  1. Heat Forecast for Rajasthan

The Rajasthan Meteorological Department has indicated that while there may be temporary relief due to a western disturbance from April 4th to 6th, the overall temperatures are expected to remain near normal. However, a subsequent rise in temperatures is anticipated, albeit with a reduced likelihood of heatwaves currently.

  1. Heat Alert for Madhya Pradesh

In Madhya Pradesh, the Meteorological Department predicts an increase in the number of heatwave days from April to June. Certain areas, such as Gwalior-Chambal, are expected to experience extreme heat, with temperatures reaching as high as 46 degrees Celsius. Residents are advised to take necessary precautions, especially as the heatwave may persist for up to six days in April.

  1. Summer Forecast for Chhattisgarh

Chhattisgarh is also bracing for heightened temperatures, with the Meteorological Department warning of a three-degree Celsius increase in maximum temperatures over the next five days. While hot winds prevail due to westerly winds, there's a silver lining in the form of anticipated good rainfall, providing some respite.

  1. Summer Forecast for Maharashtra

Maharashtra is set to endure a prolonged spell of scorching heat, with the Meteorological Department projecting a heatwave lasting approximately 20 days between April and May.

  1. Summer Forecast for Bihar

Bihar is also expected to face the heat, with a potential heatwave looming from April 10th onwards. Rising temperatures coupled with increased wind speed have already begun to take a toll on residents, necessitating caution and preparedness.

Taking Precautions Amidst Rising Temperatures

With the specter of severe heatwaves looming large, authorities and citizens alike must prioritize safety measures to mitigate the potential risks associated with prolonged exposure to high temperatures. Staying hydrated, avoiding direct sunlight during peak hours, and seeking shelter in well-ventilated spaces are some of the key recommendations to safeguard against heat-related illnesses. As the nation braces itself for a taxing summer ahead, compliance with these precautions becomes paramount in ensuring the well-being of individuals and communities amidst challenging weather conditions.
