Since mid-May, parts of northern India have been plagued by a heat wave, with temperatures exceeding 45 degrees Celsius. The heat wave is the longest ever recorded, according to meteorologists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt is the longest period because it has lasted for about 24 days in different parts of India,\u201d says Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, director of the India Meteorological Department (IMD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Delhi, temperatures that are on par with the city's record of 49.2 degrees from 2022 have been measured. At 17 different measuring stations around the capital on May 29, temperatures of 49 degrees were measured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Temperatures are expected to drop as the annual monsoon rains move north, but the IMD warns that the danger is not over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHeatwaves will become more frequent, longer and more intense unless preventive measures are taken,\u201d says Mohapatra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
