Day temperatures in the state capital are expected to reach 32 degrees Celsius next week, indicating an early start to the summer season, and weather experts analysing climatic trends predict punishingly high temperatures.
The El Nino climate pattern, which is associated with extreme heat waves and weak monsoons, is expected to emerge around this summer season, according to the most recent global meteorological models.
“From February 11, day temperatures will gradually begin rising in the city, thus marking the beginning of summer season. However, nights and early mornings will remain cool until February last week,” says Tarani Balaji, known as Telangana Weatherman on Twitter.
During the last nine years, the annual maximum temperatures were highest in 2016 and lowest in 2021.
According to a report by the Telangana State Development Planning Society, temperature trends have slightly decreased in the last three years due to the current La Nina conditions (TSDPS).
Weather and climate patterns are affected by El Nino. In India, it is associated with drought or weak monsoons. La Nina, on the other hand, is associated with intense monsoons and colder winters. It has a cooling effect.

Balaji predicts that this year’s summer will be hot and humid due to the El Nino event. “The track of summer cyclones decides the intensity of heat waves and pre-monsoon thunderstorms, which we can’t say now itself. As of now, we expect some strong heat, unlike last few years,” he added.
Meanwhile, the report by TSDPS adds that during summer, high temperatures (>;45°C) are usually observed over Uppal, Kapra, Qutubullapur, Serilingampally, Khairathabad, Shaikpet, Asifnagar, Bahadurpura, and Saidabad.
