Temperature is aggressively soaring this year. Absence of western disturbances in February for the plains has got the heat accumulated By the end of February, Bhopal temperature may cross 35 degree Celsius.Increased heat potential will possibly give rise to more frequent and longer spells of heat wave, across central, eastern and northern parts of the country.”
