Bhubaneswar: Even as February has just begun, Odisha is already witnessing a sharp rise in temperatures, signaling an early and intense summer ahead. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) reported that Bhubaneswar recorded 34.4°C at 2:30 PM on Sunday, giving residents a glimpse of the scorching heat they may have to endure in the coming weeks.
Several parts of the state have been experiencing a steady rise in both day and night temperatures over the past three days. Bolangir recorded the highest temperature at 36.67°C, followed by Titilagarh (36°C), Parlakhemundi (35.8°C), Jharsuguda (35.6°C), Sambalpur (35.1°C), and Bhawanipatna (35°C).

Balasore, Bhadrak, Jajpur, Kendrapada, Cuttack, Jagatsinghpur, Khurda, Nayagarh, Angul, and Dhenkanal are likely to experience reduced visibility due to foggy conditions.
