Andhra Pradesh, Telangana Weather LATEST Update: Heatwave Warning Issued For THESE Places; Check Forecast

Summer started with some surprise rains across the Telugu states, which kept the heat down. But that's about to change, according to both state weather departments. The Telangana Weatherman also confirms it's time to be alert. He warns that from April 12 to 22, the heat will be at its peak, with record-breaking temperatures expected.

The Weatherman is warning that temperatures will cross 40 degrees across Telangana from April 12. The heat will be most intense in East and North Telangana districts, where it could touch 44 degrees. He has issued a red alert for some districts and an orange alert for others. But there's some relief for Hyderabad and nearby districts like Medchal, Rangareddy, Vikarabad, Sangareddy, and Medak, where temperatures will be lower.

The Telangana Weatherman says there's a low chance of rain from now on. He is advising everyone to be careful as the intense heat can be dangerous. He suggests avoiding travel during the afternoon. The Weatherman also stressed that children and the elderly need to take extra precautions as the heat gets worse.

The Hyderabad weather centre also confirmed that Telangana will face scorching heat. Interestingly, while the Weatherman predicted the heatwave from April 12, the official department says temperatures will cross 40 degrees starting today (Friday). For the next four days (April 10, 11, 12, 13), temperatures could hit 41 to 44 degrees. An orange alert is out for districts like Adilabad, Bhadradri Kothagudem, Hanmakonda, Jagtial, and many others. The remaining districts are on a yellow alert, with temperatures expected between 36 and 40 degrees.

Now, let's talk about Andhra Pradesh. APSDMA MD Prakhar Jain said that on Friday, April 10, North Andhra districts will experience heatwaves, while Rayalaseema will see maximum temperatures. Krosuru in Palnadu district and Varadaiahpalem in Tirupati district have already recorded a high of 42.2°C. He warned that the heat's impact will be severe in the Rayalaseema region.

APSDMA MD Prakhar Jain also mentioned a surface trough extending from a cyclonic circulation over Telangana, Rayalaseema, and Tamil Nadu to the Gulf of Mannar. This system has been causing rain for a few days and might continue. Paidimetta in East Godavari district recorded 44mm of rain, while D. Polavaram in Kakinada district got 37.7mm.

Thanks to the trough, districts like Visakhapatnam, Anakapalli, Kakinada, Konaseema, Annamayya, and Chittoor might see light to moderate rain with thunderstorms. The APSDMA is advising people to stay alert for these mixed weather conditions—intense heat on one side and unseasonal rains with lightning on the other.
