A heatwave can feel for two days over eastern and central India: Meteorological Department.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), in its bulletin, said that the heatwave is likely to be in isolated pockets in southern Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, and Bihar until May 1 and that it will be reduced to thereafter due to thunderstorm activities in the region.

A maximum temperature of over 40 degrees Celsius is reportedly expected in most places in Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Marathwada, and Vidarbha; in many places in the Bihar, Jharkhand, and Gujarat region; in some places on Saurashtra and Kutch, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Telangana and Rayalseema and in isolated places on the Ganges of West Bengal, Madhya Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Karaikal.

The highest maximum temperature of 45.2 degrees Celsius was reportedly recorded in Banda in eastern Uttar Pradesh on Wednesday. Heatwave conditions are likely to subside from May 2.

“The heatwave conditions will persist for only a couple of days. It will be followed by intense thunderstorm activity. Bihar, Odisha, parts of West Bengal, and all of Northeast India will likely have severe weather as well. Due to this intense activity from the east, there may be cloud cover and some thunderstorm activity also in northwestern India, “said lead scientist RK Jenamani from the National Weather Forecast Center.

Under the influence of a depression (low-pressure area) over eastern India, scattered or scattered showers or thunderstorms are likely to occur in eastern India over the next three days.

Due to the lower level south or southeast winds from the Bay of Bengal and the confluence of the wind in eastern India, rain or thunderstorms are likely to increase from 2 May. Rains are likely to be scattered to widespread in eastern and northeastern India (Odisha, Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal, Sikkim, Assam, and Meghalaya) until May 6.
