East Coast under heat / humid wave ..makes Rajasthan heat feel pale in comparison ( 19 May 2017 )
It's that time of the year again.. Heat/humid wave has gripped east coast (specially Andhra / Tamilnadu) during past 4 days.
It's either extremely hot and drier winds from the west (temps of 47 c) or supressingly humid breeze from the bay ( heat index over 55 c) .
Nights are also hot and humid with temps above 30 c ( Ongole min 34 .1 c ) .
Machilipatnam was 47 c / 31 c yesterday and 40 c / 32 c today (heat index 54 , even at night heat index was above 40 c )
Bhubaneswar/Visakhapatnam AP ..39 c /29 c yesterday with heat index of 55 c
Gopalpur(by the sea) was 36 c / 28 c yesterday with suppressing humidity ( heat index approaching 55 c )
Chennai AP was 44 c / 30 c yesterday with heat index of over 50 c

Could be highest temperature ever for machhalipatnam..
Meanwhile what could be the heat index in mumbai at present.
Mumbai suburbs with a temperature of 34c and 70% RH gives approx heat index of 47c
If we look past data - RAJ is definitely becoming wetter and less hotter compared to places in SE India... (much to annoyance of others)
@ Vinod bhai - Mumbai SCZ heat index around 40 today..
Not the highest temp for Machilipatnam..
Andhra is the warmest state of India ( annual avg. temp wise )..
Sir, there is a system in May end going towards Yemen/Oman. Will it affect the onset of South West Monsoon? What are your views on this?
Vinod: Machilipatnam record is 47.8c in May 2003.
Moshin: Have given my views in latest post on 20th night....no system seen in Arb sea on 23rd.
Arjun: No confirmed system seen in Arb Sea. My latest views are published. Will keep Vagaries updated if and when i see a system :-)
Ok sir. Thanks for replying.
Heat has reduced by couple of degrees in Chennai today..
