The state government has also issued an advisory for the districts and asked different departments to look after various sectors for mitigating the hot and humid condition.
However, as far as sky high temperatures are concerned, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh including Sambalpur, Titlagarh, Bolangir, Angul, Jharsuguda, Rentachnitala, Nandigama, Bapatla, Narsapur etc. may be the vulnerable pockets and isolated heat wave conditions may occur.
Unlike last time, southern parts of the state become more vulnerable to intense weather activity. Gajapati, Ganjam, Brahmapur, Cuttack, Nayagarh, Rayagada, Khordha and Dhenkanal are at bigger risk of getting lashed with harsh weather conditions, albeit not simultaneously.
There may be isolated heavy spells over southern parts of Odisha on April 23rd and 24. These pre monsoon thunder showers will certainly cool down the temperatures and there will be some relief from ongoing hot weather conditions.
Odisha has been seeing a rise in the maximum levels where maximums are settling about 36-38 degrees Celsius. Even Jharkhand has seen maximums around 38 degrees. Cities of Gaya and Bankura in Bihar and West Bengal are also seeing extreme rise in maximums.
