New Delhi, May 28

The northern part of India continues to remain under the grip of an intense heat wave, with temperatures crossing the 45-degree Celsius mark at several places.

However, according to Skymet Weather, heavy to very heavy rain is likely to occur over Lakshadweep and moderate to heavy rain over Kerala and Coastal Karnataka. Light to moderate rain can also occur in some parts of Tamil Nadu.

Due to this, states like Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal are likely to witness heavy spells of rain in some regions.

On Sunday, Delhi recorded a maximum temperature of 45.8 degrees Celsius at the Palam Observatory which is five notches above the season’s average.

Earlier on May 25, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicted that the people will get some relief by the end of this month after Easterly winds reach the National Capital.

“The heat wave will continue in Rajasthan, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab and Delhi NCR till May 27. People are advised to stay indoors. Easterly winds that would reach Delhi around May 29 would bring some respite from the heat wave,” said Dr Kuldeep, a scientist of the IMD. ANI
