India is currently facing a severe heatwave, prompting the India Meteorological Department (IMD) to issue yellow alerts for several cities, including New Delhi, Agra, and Jaipur. In New Delhi, temperatures are expected to soar up to 44°C, with the Ridge station already recording 42.1°C. Health experts recommend that residents avoid outdoor activities between 11 AM and 4 PM, stay hydrated, and limit sun exposure, especially for vulnerable groups like children and the elderly. Agra has also been placed under a heatwave alert after temperatures reached 43°C, while Jaipur recorded around 40.5°C. The heat is exacerbated by worsening air quality, increasing discomfort for commuters. In West Bengal, Panagarh has emerged as one of the hottest locations, hitting 43.8°C, with authorities warning of continued heatwave conditions in southern districts. The IMD has also flagged dangerous UV radiation levels, urging people to avoid direct sunlight. With rising temperatures and humidity, the “real feel” temperature is significantly higher, raising concerns for outdoor workers, students, and the elderly. Local authorities are closely monitoring the situation as demand for electricity and water surges during this extreme weather phase.
