Telangana is likely to continue to reel under the heat wave as mercury is expected to remain up to 45 degrees Celsius in most parts of the state in the next two days.
"Heat wave conditions (are) very likely to prevail (tomorrow and day after) over most parts in the districts of Adilabad, Nizamabad, Karimanagar, Khammam, Hyderabad, Rangareddy, Medak, Mahabubnagar, Warangal and Nalgonda of Telangana," an official release from India Meteorology Department (IMD) said.
Most places of Telangana are very likely to record maximum temperature between 40 and 45 degrees Celsius, it said.
As per the release, the highest maximum temperature of 45 degrees Celsius was recorded at Nizamabad today.
Meanwhile, the streets of Hyderabad today wore a deserted look during afternoon with people preferring to stay indoors to escape the sweltering-heat.
Heat wave has claimed 35 lives in Telangana so far, prompting the state government to issue alerts in all districts to take precautionary measures to minimise the impact of the prevailing weather conditions, senior official had recently said.
