Telangana Temperatures Rise as Weak Monsoon Brings Brief Rain Relief
Telangana has been hotter and more humid than usual in September.
This is happening because the monsoon is weak and there are fewer clouds and less rain.
Many places in the state are seeing temperatures between 35°C and 38°C.
Hyderabad also feels uncomfortable because its humidity is high.
A low-pressure area is forming over the Bay of Bengal.
It may bring clouds and rain to Telangana from September 11 to 13.
The rain could cool Hyderabad for a short time.
After that, temperatures are expected to rise again.
Temperatures across Telangana are running 2–4°C above normal as the monsoon weakens and skies remain mostly clear.
Several districts recorded high temperatures, including 36.5°C in Mahabubnagar, 35.4°C in Khammam and 35.2°C in Bhadrachalam.
Hyderabad recorded a maximum of 32.3°C and a minimum of 25.2°C, with morning humidity reaching 81%.
A low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal is expected to bring clouds and rain to Telangana from September 11 to 13.
Rain may briefly lower Hyderabad’s maximum temperatures to about 31–32°C before temperatures rise again by 2–3°C.
