The latest forecast from India Meteorological Department-Hyderabad said day and night temperatures are likely to rise by two to four degrees gradually during the next five days. The rise may be accompanied by mist during morning hours at isolated places and mainly clear sky later.

The soaring temperatures can be attributed mainly to low-level southerlies and south-easterlies prevailing over the State.
