New Delhi, May 5: A fresh spell of heatwave is likely to begin over northwest India from May 7 and over central India from May 8, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said on Thursday.
Heatwave conditions are predicted over Rajasthan on May 7 to May 9, and over south Haryana, Delhi, southwest Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Vidarbha region of Maharashtra on May 8 and May 9, it said.
With scanty rains owing to feeble western disturbances, northwest and central India experienced the hottest April in 122 years.
The IMD also said that a low pressure area is likely to form over South Andaman Sea on Friday. It is very likely to move northwestwards and intensify into a depression during the subsequent 48 hours. Under its influence, heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely over Andaman and Nicobar Islands from Friday to Sunday, the Met office said. (PTI)
