Telangana has experienced a slightly warmer winter this year with temperatures a few degrees more than the normal this time of the season and there is no likelihood of cooler temperatures in the week ahead as the strong easterly winds from Bay of Bengal continue to dominate the climate, according to scientists at the TS Development Planning Society (TSDPS) on Tuesday.
“There is a perceptible easterly winds bias this winter, so we cannot expect any cold wave. Temperatures have been definitely two to three degrees above normal at most places when compared to the same time last year. Temperatures in Delhi and other places up north too have been experiencing more than normal temperatures,” said weather forecast consultant Y.V. Rama Rao.
Usually, Telangana should have been experiencing cold wave conditions from December 15 to January 15 but this has not happened this time though there were a few nippy days and nights. Strong winds from easterly to southwestern have been prevalent. After ‘Sankranti’, the day temperatures are only likely to go on an upper trajectory path, he explained.
