Odisha to experience a rise in day temperature up to 45 degree celsius

Bhubaneswar, Apr 22 (UNI) A stream of humid air coming from the Arabian Sea through the Karnataka coast towards Odisha in the upper level had turned the weather warm in the state’s coastal belt making life uncomfortable.
The thermometer reading, however, was showing low day temperature while flow of dry hot north-westerly wind was causing rise in day temperature up to 45 degrees C in the interior districts, Dr. Sarat Chandra Sahu, Director of SOA’s Centre for Environment and Climate (CEC), said.
The situation is likely to prevail up to April 26 while the day temperature is expected to rise in the coastal districts from Wednesday as the system causing flow of humid air towards the eastern coast will get weakened tonight, he said.
Dr. Sahu said an upper air trough was moving from north-west India towards the east of the country which will favour drop in day temperature to less than 40 degrees Celsius in Odisha between April 27 to May 2.
During this period, high intensity norwester (Kalbaisakhi) may be experienced causing widespread rain over the state.
While the wind speed could reach 75 km per hour, moderate to heavy rainfall will become more prominent from April 27 to 29, he said.
