Temp nears 40C as dry spell continues
Indore: The dry spell gripping the region caused temperatures in Indore to soar, with the city recording a sweltering 39.6 degrees Celsius on Monday. After weeks of relatively pleasant weather brought on by cloud cover and scattered rainfall, the abrupt return of intense heat made outdoor conditions particularly harsh.

Relative humidity, recorded at 68% at 8:30 am, dropped to 34% by 5:30 pm, while gusty winds from the northwest reached speeds of 41 kmph, offering some relief during the night hours. According to Dr Divya E Surendran, meteorologist at IMD Bhopal, "The next two days are likely to remain dry. From June 11, thunderstorm and rain activity will resume in parts of eastern and southern Madhya Pradesh, including Khandwa and Burhanpur. However, other regions, including Indore, may continue to stay dry, with heatwave conditions likely in northern Madhya Pradesh."
