These districts will be most affected
Weather experts say North and East Telangana districts will feel the most heat. Places like Adilabad, Kumram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Jayashankar Bhupalpally, Mulugu, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Mahabubnagar, Nagarkurnool, Narayanpet, and Gadwal could see temperatures between 36–40 degrees. Even forest areas like Mulugu, Bhupalpally, and Kothagudem will be super hot. Officials are saying that even in other districts with slightly lower temps, you still need to be careful.
The sudden heat spike in Northwest and Central India is hitting Telangana. A high-pressure system over Central India is pushing hot winds towards our state, making it hotter every day. On top of that, a weather system over the southern sea is causing dry winds. Experts believe all this will make the heat even worse in the coming days.
