The weather in Patna and other parts of Bihar turning warmer with the maximum temperature in most parts of the state nearing 30 degrees Celsius.
Night temperature is also being recorded above 10 degrees C at most places.
Sudhanshu Kumar, an officer at Patna Meteorological Centre, said both day and night temperatures remained higher than the corresponding normal in the last 24 hours.
For instance, both maximum and minimum temperatures at Patna were a notch higher than the corresponding normal on Monday.
The maximum temperature stood at 28 degrees C, while the minimum temperature was recorded at 13.6 degrees C.
Maximum temperature at Forbesganj was recorded at 30.2 degrees C.
Deliberating on the higher temperature recordings in Bihar, Sudhanshu said: “Minimal impact of western disturbance and clear skies are leading to unobstructed solar heat right from morning hours.”
He said the maximum temperature is expected to rise further over the next two to three days, though no significant change is expected in minimum temperature.
India Meteorological Department (IMD) also stated that minimum temperature is expected to surge over east India by 2-3 degrees C after three days.
The Patna centre stated that the maximum temperature will surge above 30 degrees C across the state by Thursday.
It is expected to surge up to 33 degrees C by this weekend at several places in north-central and south-central parts of the state, including Patna.
The minimum temperature, on the other hand, is expected to be in the range of 13-15 degree C at most places and up to 15-17 degrees C in eastern parts of the state.
