According to the IMD Hyderabad, all six zones in Hyderabad – Charminar, Khairatabad, Kukatpally, LB Nagar, Secunderabad, and Serilingampally – are expected to have a generally cloudy sky, with light to moderate rainfall or thundershowers expected towards the evening or night.
Maximum temperature in Hyderabad
While Hyderabad is expected to receive rainfall, the maximum temperature in the city is likely to be in the range of 36 to 40 degrees Celsius.

This is in line with the forecast by the Telangana State Development Planning Society (TSDPS), which has also predicted light rainfall or thundershowers at isolated places towards the evening/night for the next three days.
Apart from Hyderabad, IMD forecasts rainfall in other cities
It is important to note that the yellow alert is not limited to Hyderabad and is valid for the entire state of Telangana. The temperature in other parts of the state may go as high as 42 degrees Celsius, making it important for people to stay indoors and keep themselves hydrated.
In view of the forecast made by both IMD Hyderabad and TSDPS, residents are advised to take necessary precautions and plan their travel accordingly.
Tips to beat the heat
As the temperature in Hyderabad is rising continuously, it is important to follow tips to beat the heat.
Avoid spicy food: It is essential to avoid spicy food as it increases metabolism in the body.

Say ‘no’ to too much dry fruits: Although, dry fruits are good for health, too much consumption of almond, cashew, walnuts etc. should be avoided in summer as they produce enormous heat in the body.
Deep fried food not good in summer: Consumption of deep fried food in summer may affect digestion and cause burning sensation in the stomach.
Avoid stepping out, cooking during peak time: Avoid stepping out between 12 noon and 3 p.m. which is considered as peak time.
Stay hydrated: In order to stay hydrated, one can consume watermelon, fresh fruits, etc. Lemon juice, lassi, curd, etc., can also be consumed.

IMD Hyderabad forecasts temperature in Telangana to soar up to 45 degrees Celsius

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an orange alert for most of the districts in Telangana as it forecasts that the maximum temperature will rise to up to 45 degrees Celsius in the current week. The IMD has also issued a yellow alert for Hyderabad, where the temperature is expected to rise up to 40 degrees Celsius.
Today so far, the highest maximum temperature of 42.2 degrees Celsius was recorded in Adilabad. Other districts that recorded more than 40 degrees Celsius are Jagtial (41.5), Mancherial (41), Kumuram Bheem (40.5), Nalgonda (40.5), Adilabad (40.3), Yadadri Bhuvanagiri (40.3), Mulugu (40.3), and Nagarkurnool (40.1). In Hyderabad, the highest maximum temperature of 37.6 degrees Celsius was recorded in Khairatabad.
On Tuesday, the IMD predicted normal rainfall during the southwest monsoon season despite the evolving El Nino conditions. The El Nino is the warming of the waters in the Pacific Ocean near South America, which is generally associated with the weakening of monsoon winds and dry weather in India.

The El Nino conditions this year follow three consecutive La Nina years, which typically bring good rainfall during the monsoon season.
Normal rainfall is critical for India’s agricultural landscape, with 52 percent of the net cultivated area relying on it. It is also crucial for the replenishing of reservoirs critical for drinking water, apart from power generation across the country.
The IMD’s forecast serves as a relief to the agricultural sector as it relies heavily on the monsoon season for cultivation.
