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.
