Currently, several parts of India are experiencing intense heat, with temperatures rising significantly above the seasonal average. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) and weather reports, heatwave conditions have set in across multiple states, especially in eastern and western India, earlier than expected. This premature heatwave, influenced by factors such as low rainfall and climate change, has led to extreme temperature spikes in these regions. Below are the key areas currently facing severe heat.
OdishaOdisha is witnessing unusually high temperatures, with some areas exceeding 40°C over the past few days. Cities like Boudh have recorded extreme highs, reaching 43.6°C on March 16, making it one of the hottest spots in the country recently. Other locations, such as Jharsuguda (42°C) and Bolangir (41.7°C), have also been under intense heat, marking an early onset of heatwave conditions.
