Karnataka weather: Winter chills to the bone as mercury dips sharply

Historically, the lowest temperature recorded in Bengaluru in the month of January was 7.8° Celsius on January 13, 1884.

BENGALURU: The winter chill may not have given Karnataka a miss, after all. Many parts of the state have witnessed a steep drop in minimum temperatures over the past few days.

While Bengaluru and its surrounding areas woke up to another chilly morning on Wednesday, with many parts of the city recording temperatures around the 10° Celsius mark, the lowest minimum temperature of 4.1° Celsius was recorded at Almel hobli in Vijayapura district, according to the Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Cell (KSNDMC).

Elsewhere, people in Dharwad, Vijayapura, Belagavi, Bidar, Kalaburagi, Shivamogga and other places too experienced biting cold as minimum temperatures were in the range of 4-6° C.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an alert for cold wave conditions in parts of Karnataka for the second day in a row. Cold wave to severe cold wave conditions prevailed at a few places over north-interior Karnataka and cold wave conditions were observed at isolated places over south-interior Karnataka.

The changed weather conditions saw 84.2% of the geographical area of the state record minimum temperatures in the range of 8°C to 14°C on Wednesday. Minimum temperatures in many parts of the state were 2-3° degrees C below normal. Forecasts indicate that the cold weather will continue for the next two-three days. 

The Met department recorded 11.1° Celsius at Kempegowda International Airport and 11.5° C at HAL. The lowest temperature recorded in Bengaluru since 2008 was in 2012 at 12° Celsius. 

Historically, the lowest temperature recorded in Bengaluru in the month of January was 7.8° Celsius on January 13, 1884.

The KSNDMC data showed that several other parts of the city also recorded a dip in temperatures. Regions in Bengaluru North were colder than those in Bengaluru South, according to KSNDMC scientist S S M Gavaskar. Among the areas that recorded minimum temperatures around the 10° Celsius mark included Chikkajala at 10.7° Celsius, Yelahanka and Kengeri at 10.3° C and Tavarekere at 10.1° C.

According to IMD forecast, cold wave conditions have abated in the northern parts of the country. “Cold wave conditions are isolated pockets over eastern parts of central India and interior peninsular India are likely to continue during the next 1-2 days,” said the forecast.

Bengaluru shivers, sees almost decadal low in temperature 

BENGALURU: “ How on earth is Bengaluru so cold.” “Too cold today than usual #Bangalore.” Twitter is abuzz with netizens pouring their views on Bengaluru weather, which has suddenly turned colder in the last few days. In fact, on Tuesday night, Bengaluru city almost hit a decadal low when it came to minimum temperature recorded for the city in January. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the lowest minimum temperature for Bengaluru city for the month of January was recorded at 12 degrees Celsius in 2012. In 2009, the reading had touched 12.1 degrees Celsius. On Tuesday night, the mercury levels dipped to 12.4 degrees Celsius. The all-time low temperature for Bengaluru city, however, was recorded on January 13, 1884, when the mercury dropped to 7.8 degrees Celsius. “Woke up to a cold morning in Bangalore today... Went back to bed and snuggled inside the rajai and had masala tea .Brrr,” tweeted Lakshmi Sharath. An official at the meteorological centre, Bengaluru, said cold wave conditions prevailing at isolated places over south interior Karnataka, prolonged dry weather and clear sky conditions are reasons why Bengaluru is experiencing colder nights. “If these weather systems continue, there are chances of temperatures falling further. As on Wednesday, the lowest minimum temperature saw a departure of 3.4 degrees Celsius from the normal for the month,” he added. The weatherman has predicted fog or mist during early-morning hours in some areas of Bengaluru. “Maximum & minimum temperatures very likely to be around 28 and 13 degrees Celsius, respectively,” read the weather bulletin. Breeze from northeast Pro f MB Rajegowda, an agro-meteorologist who works at the University of Agricultural Sciences, Bengaluru, however, said colder nights are natural during this season. “The period between December 15 and January 15 is the time when Bengaluru experience its coldest nights. But when there is a clear sky and there is effect of colder breeze from northeastern part of the country, the intensity of chill becomes severe,” he added. North Karnataka hit as well The officer further said cold wave to severe cold wave conditions are prevailing over a few places in north interior Karnataka. Bidar, which hit an all-time low of 6 degrees Celsius on Tuesday, saw only marginal improvement on Wednesday, with the lowest minimum temperature reading 7.2 degrees Celsius

The mercury levels plummeted as low as 9 degrees Celsius in the outskirts of Bengaluru. A bonebiting 4.5 degrees Celsius was recorded at Bidar and Vijayapura in North Karnataka region on Wednesday.

alert’ across the state. The burgeoning extreme cold conditions have already le the cool
Bengaluru shivering.

Disaster Monitoring Cell (KSNDMC), revealed to DH that the minimum temperature across
Bengaluru has plummeted by up to 4 degrees Celsius.
“Areas in Bengaluru North have witnessed minimum temperature ranging from 9 degree Celsius to
11 degrees Celsius, while the central and southern areas have recorded 12 degrees Celsius on

Sources also explained that the record lowest minimum temperature in Bengaluru was recorded
way back in 1984 with the mercury dropping to 7.8C.
“In recent times, during 2009 the temperature levels had fallen to 12.1 degrees Celsius,” Dr Reddy
added.C S Patil, Director-in-charge, IMD, Bengaluru, explained that the condition is likely to prevail over
the southern peninsula for another couple of days. “The prevailing clear skies over the peninsular
region have only paved way for the intense cold wave to sweep over most of the southern states.”
Recordings at KSNDMC stations across North Karnataka region have le many surprised.
“The regions across North Karnataka have been the coldest in the state. Sindagi in Vijayapura has
recorded the lowest temperature of 4.5 degrees Celsius on Wednesday followed by Bidar (4.7C),” Dr Reddy revealed.
The KSNDMC scientists have also advised people to be watchful of the sweeping cold wave.
“An intense cold situation like this will be a testing time for the people with respiratory ailments.
Arthritis patients will also likely suer due to bone-biting cold conditions as they will reel under
intense pain. With the cold conditions severe between 4 am and 7 am, the morning walkers and

joggers need to be cautious of the weather, and keep themselves warm,” Dr Reddy cautioned.
