Heatwave Spell: IMD warns of heatwave spells in April | El Nino, La Nina | Oneindia
The seven-phase Lok Sabha polls season will witness an unprecedented rise in the heatwave in most parts of the country, the India Meteorological Department warned here on Monday.
While above-normal temperatures are likely almost all over the country, 10-20 days of heatwave is expected between April and June in different parts against normal of 4-8 days.
“More heatwave days are expected in an El Nino year.
The El Nino (an unusual rise of temperature in the Pacific Ocean with impacts all over the world) is still there in April-May even though it is receding and may become neutral by June,” Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, director general of meteorology at the IMD said.

Winter Storm Brings , California Reservoir , to Full Capacity.
'Newsweek' reports that California's
Cachuma Lake reached full capacity following
a winter storm over the past weekend.
In the summer of 2022, several California
reservoirs reached alarmingly low water
levels amid a long-running drought.
At the time, water levels at
Cachuma Lake fell to 692 feet. .
On March 3 of this year, water levels
at Cachuma Lake reached 753.1 feet,
just above its capacity of 753 feet.
While other reservoirs in California are higher
than their historical averages, none besides Cachuma Lake have reached capacity this year, according to
the California Department of Water Resources.
Cachuma Lake has reached
136% of its historical average.
As a result, water levels in California have significantly
improved, with officials even voluntarily releasing
water from several reservoirs ahead of expected rain.
So far in 2024, a number of California
cities have exceeded their annual average
rainfall, including Los Angeles and San Diego.
According to AccuWeather,
California is predicted to be
drought-free until at least 2025.
However, a coming shift from El Niño to La Niña
in the fall could impact how long California
experiences a period of time without droughts.
