Hyderabad: As Telangana nears the end of the monsoon season, the winter season in Hyderabad and other districts in the states is slowly making its arrival felt.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecasted that the monsoon season will officially conclude after October 25, although some southern Telangana districts may still experience light to moderate rainfall before the rains fully withdraw.
With the departure of the monsoon, temperatures across the state have already begun to dip, signaling the onset of cooler weather.
Gradual temperature drop across Telangana
As the monsoon season draws to a close, night temperatures in various districts including Hyderabad are starting to decrease.
According to data from the Telangana State Development and Planning Society (TSDPS), areas such as Nizamabad, Sangareddy, Medak, and Kamareddy have started witnessing night temperatures below 20 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, districts like Hyderabad, Wanaparthy, Nalgonda, and Jogulamba Gadwal are experiencing slightly warmer nights with temperatures between 20 degrees Celsius and 22 degrees Celsius.
Despite the cooling trend, average temperatures across the state are not predicted to drop below 17 degrees Celsius or 18 degrees Celsius until December.
Pleasant winter season in Hyderabad
Weather experts have noted that while global warming has reduced the number of truly chilly days in the region, Hyderabad can still expect pleasant and comfortable weather during the winter months. Daytime highs are expected to remain below 38 degrees Celsius.
As the state transitions from the rainy season into winter, the overall weather in Telangana, including Hyderabad, is expected to be mild but enjoyable.
