The heat wave continues in the north and northwest states of the country for the past several weeks and people are not getting relief from the scorching heat. Especially the power cut has made the situation worse. The day temperature is going up to 43 to 45 degree Celsius. From Delhi, Haryana, Punjab, UP, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan to Bengal, there is severe heat. However, in the meantime, the Meteorological Department has given news of relief. The Meteorological Department says that there is a possibility of rain in the next few days and due to this the temperature may drop. However, for three days before that, all the states of North and Northwest India will have to face the heat of the heat.
The Meteorological Department has advised the local administration to take necessary steps to provide relief to the people. Talking about Gurugram itself, the temperature here on Thursday was 45.6 degree Celsius. Apart from this, the temperature had crossed 46 in Hisar, Haryana. Apart from this, the temperature in Delhi’s Safdarjung was recorded at 43.5 degree Celsius. Usually the temperature in the month of April is not so high. Charan Singh, a scientist at the Meteorological Center in Delhi said, ‘There is a possibility of rain in the plains of North India. Apart from this, dust storm can also occur, due to which the temperature will not increase further. The temperature rises further by 1 to 2 degree Celsius in the next few days. After that it will be stable.
According to estimates, the effect of Western Disturbance has started showing in Northwest India. There is a possibility of rain in Gilgit-Baltistan, Muzaffarabad region in the next two days. Apart from this, there is a possibility of rain in Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand in the next 5 days. On the other hand, dust storm is expected in Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, UP and Rajasthan. Light rain may also occur, due to which the temperature may drop slightly. Similar weather may occur during May 3 to 4. In such a situation, it is believed that with the beginning of May, relief can start coming.
Why did the heat rise so quickly?
According to the Meteorological Department, there has been no rain this year in the months of March and April. Generally, there has been a little rain in March and April, but this time due to lack of it, the heat has increased rapidly. There has been a decrease of up to 87 percent in the average rainfall since March 1. It is too early to say now, but if the weather continues like this, then the heat record of the last several years may be broken this time. This year, since Holi, the heat has increased rapidly and the heat wave has started running long ago, due to which many states have declared holidays in schools and colleges.
