Heat Wave: March's Heatwave, Temperatures to Reach 39 Degrees Today and Tomorrow The Meteorological Department has issued a warning that temperatures in the region will rise to 39 degrees Celsius today and tomorrow, March 9th and 10th. This marks an early and intense arrival of the summer heat, with residents experiencing conditions typically associated with May. The department’s forecast indicates a significant increase in temperatures, prompting residents of Sambhajinagar to prepare for a period of extreme heat. The heatwave has arrived earlier than expected, with temperatures climbing steadily since the start of March. Daily averages have risen by one degree Celsius each day, and the city’s maximum temperature has stabilized around 38 degrees Celsius. The most intense heat occurs between 12 PM and 4 PM, leading to the formation of thick layers of dust on major roads. Additionally, the minimum temperature has also risen, with the mercury reaching 21.4 degrees Celsius, eliminating the usual nighttime coolness and creating a persistent sense of dry heat. Experts attribute the rapid temperature rise to the combined effects of the El Niño phenomenon and warm winds originating from the arid regions. These factors have contributed to the sudden and severe increase in temperatures. While there is a slight chance of partly cloudy skies on March 12th and 13th, which may cause a minor drop in temperatures, the overall trend of rising heat is expected to continue. Residents are advised to take precautions against heatstroke, including avoiding outdoor activities during peak hours, wearing protective clothing such as caps and scarves, and staying hydrated by drinking water, lemon juice, or buttermilk. If symptoms such as dizziness or nausea occur, immediate medical attention is recommended.#meteorological_department #sambhajinagar #el_nio #heatwave #march
