Barmer recorded a temperature exceeding 38°C on a November day, a rare occurrence for the typically milder winter month. The heat spike was noted by local weather stations and reported by regional media.
Other major towns across Rajasthan, including Jodhpur, Bikaner and Ajmer, also posted daytime and nighttime temperatures above the seasonal norm, indicating a widespread heatwave rather than an isolated anomaly.
Meteorological experts warned that the high temperatures are expected to persist for the next seven days, with no significant cooling front forecasted. The prolonged heat may affect agricultural activities and increase demand for electricity as residents rely on cooling appliances.
The report, sourced from Amar Ujala, underscores that November in Rajasthan is usually characterized by comfortable evenings, making the current conditions unusually harsh for the season.
