North India is currently facing extreme heat, causing significant discomfort to residents. The direct sunlight is increasing temperatures sharply, in stark contrast to the heavy rains lashing southern India. The situation remains dire in northern and central India, where the heatwave shows no signs of abating.
According to the IMD, Delhi will experience clear skies and a heatwave today, June 15. Strong hot winds are expected during the day, with temperatures reaching a high of 44 degrees Celsius and a low of 32 degrees Celsius. The heatwave is predicted to persist in the capital until June 19, after which some relief from the intense heat may begin.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has indicated that many parts of northern India are not expected to see relief from the heatwave soon. On June 14, temperatures soared to 45.2 degrees Celsius in Patiala, Punjab weather, and 45 degrees Celsius in Rohtak, Haryana. Even the typically cooler hilly regions are not spared, with temperatures surpassing 40 degrees Celsius. Una in Himachal Pradesh recorded 43.6 degrees, Sundernagar 41 degrees, and Mandi 39.4 degrees. In Uttarakhand, Dehradun hit 43 degrees and Pantnagar recorded 41 degrees.
The severe heatwave continues to pose challenges across the region, as residents endure unusually high temperatures for this time of year.
