Telangana Cold Wave Deepens as Sangareddy Hits 7.8°C and Ten Locations Fall Below 10°C

Forecasters attribute the sharp drop to dry northerly winds driving night temperatures several degrees lower than last year.

Overview

  • Official TGDPS readings show 10 locations below 10°C on November 14, with 7.8°C logged in Kohir of Sangareddy district and single-digit lows in Lingapur (Kumram Bheem), Mominpet (Vikarabad), Ibrahimpatnam (Rangareddy), and other northern and central pockets.
  • IMD-Hyderabad expects cold-wave conditions in isolated pockets of Adilabad, Kumram Bheem Asifabad, Nirmal, Sangareddy, and Medak, with minimums likely 3–4°C below normal over the next two to three days.
  • Compared with the same date last year, several districts are four to six degrees colder, reinforcing the unusually sharp mid-November chill across the state.
  • The IMD highway forecast cautions motorists about early-morning haze along NH-7 and NH-9 affecting stretches in Adilabad, Nizamabad, Medak, Hyderabad, Mahabubnagar, and Nalgonda.
  • Officials say the cool spell should persist for a few days with a gradual warming trend likely after November 17, as health and agriculture advisories urge precautions for vulnerable people, rabi crops, and young livestock.
