Dehradun, October 2024: As the season shifts, Uttarakhand is experiencing notable temperature fluctuations with warmer days and increasingly chilly nights. The changing weather has become more noticeable, bringing mild discomfort to residents who are feeling the warmth during the day followed by a sharp drop in temperature after sunset.
Daytime Heat Persists
During the day, temperatures remain unusually warm for this time of year. The clear skies and ample sunlight are causing a noticeable rise in daytime temperatures, giving residents a lingering summer-like feel even as October progresses.
Nighttime Chill on the Rise
In contrast, night temperatures are dipping significantly, bringing a noticeable chill to the air. As the sun sets, the warmth of the day fades quickly, and a cool breeze takes over. This growing contrast between day and night temperatures is typical for the region during seasonal transitions but seems to be more pronounced this year.
Impact on Residents
The fluctuating temperatures have led many residents to adapt their routines, especially by adjusting their clothing layers to cope with the temperature swings. Health experts advise caution, as sudden temperature changes can lead to seasonal illnesses.
Weather Forecast
The weather department predicts that this pattern may continue in the coming days. As autumn deepens, it is likely that the nighttime chill will grow stronger, while daytime warmth may start to recede gradually, signaling the arrival of winter.
