Telangana is preparing for cold wave conditions today as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a yellow alert for seven districts. The agency expects minimum temperatures to fall 3 to 4°C below normal over the next two days. Many areas already recorded sharp drops during early morning hours.

Adilabad, Komaram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Nirmal, Sangareddy, Medak, and Kamareddy are under alert. IMD said fog and mist may cover these regions during morning hours. The agency expects minimum temperatures around 13°C and maximum temperatures near 31°C. Officials also reported hazy conditions at night due to falling temperatures.

A recent bulletin noted that minimum temperatures dipped nearly 5°C below normal on Friday. The Telangana Development Planning Society released new data showing 12 districts saw temperatures under 10°C between 7 and 8 December. Kohir in Sangareddy recorded 7.2°C, the lowest in the state, reflecting the intensity of the cold spell.

IMD linked the change to a trough over the southeast Bay of Bengal. The agency predicts cold wave conditions across central, east, and southern India until 12 December. Northwest and west India will also see similar conditions from 10 December, with the cold likely to persist for two days.

Andhra Pradesh was battered by Cyclone Motha, which made landfall in the Bay of Bengal late Tuesday night around 12:30 a.m. Despite weakening after crossing the coast, heavy rains have continued to lash several parts of the state. The weather conditions remain severe as the system has turned into a deep depression.

Continuous rainfall pounded the coastal districts from East Godavari to Srikakulam. Heavy downpours flooded low-lying areas, damaged crops, and disrupted road transport. Power supply was interrupted in multiple regions. East Godavari, Alluri Sitarama Raju, Visakhapatnam, Vizianagaram, and Srikakulam districts have been severely hit.

The sea turned rough near Srikakulam as waves surged violently. Fishermen were warned not to venture into the sea. The Meteorological Department stated that the remaining moisture from Cyclone Motha will continue to bring rain for the next two days, including in border districts of Telangana.

State authorities have been mobilized for relief operations. Revenue, Panchayat, Electricity, and Disaster Management departments are working on emergency measures. The government has instructed officials to assess crop losses and provide assistance to affected farmers.
