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. The most heatwave prone areas are Gujarat, central Maharashtra and north Chhattisgarh, Odisha and Andhra Pradesh. βMore 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,β Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, director general of meteorology at the IMD said.
What are El Nino and La Nina and how do they affect the weather conditions?

Climate Change Impacting , Cherry Blossom Season , Around the World.
'Time' reports that cherry blossom trees around
the world are blooming earlier as a result of
increasing temperatures due to climate change.
According to Daisuke Sasano, a climate risk management officer , at the Japan Meteorological Agency, the average bloom date, has moved up 1.2 days per decade since 1953.
Cherry trees, known as sakura in Japan, had an
average starting bloom date of March 29 between
1961 and 1990, according to Sasano's research.
Between 1991 and 2020,
the data showed that the
average moved up to March 24. .
In 2023, the starting bloom
date in Tokyo was March 14. .
The fact that Tokyo
recorded the earliest
start date is due to global
warming, compounded
with urbanization, Daisuke Sasano, Climate risk management officer, via 'Time'.
'Time' reports that the warmer-than-normal temperatures
were recorded all around the world this winter,
with January coming in as the hottest ever on record.
Spring is most definitely starting
earlier than when you were a kidβ
there is no doubt about that, Theresa Crimmins, Director of the USA
National Phenology Network, via 'Time'.
Many, many studies show
clear trends toward warmer
temperatures and earlier
starts to springtime activity
over the longer term, Theresa Crimmins, Director of the USA
National Phenology Network, via 'Time'.
According to U.S. government data,
peak bloom in Washington D.C. has
shifted earlier by around 7 days since 1921.
