Bhubaneswar: Odisha is likely to get some relief from the October heat as day temperatures are expected to drop by 2 to 3 degrees Celsius.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow warning for 14 districts of the state for today.

According to the Regional Meteorological Centre in Bhubaneswar, wind speeds may reach 30-40 kmph in some places during the adverse weather conditions.

The weather is likely to change due to the presence of two trough lines over eastern India. Their influence may trigger rain accompanied by lightning and thunderstorms across several districts.

Baleshwar, Bhadrak, Jajpur, Kendrapada, Jagatsinghpur, Kataka, Sundargada, Jharsuguda, Baragada, Sambalpur and Debagada including 14 districts are under yellow warning.

People have been advised to remain cautious in view of the possibility of lightning and gusty winds.

Meanwhile, Odisha has been witnessing unusually high temperatures over the past few days, with the October heat causing discomfort across the state.

The southwest monsoon’s withdrawal from the state is also underway. Weather conditions are expected to gradually improve after today, with skies likely to become clearer.
