Mid February experiences a Heat wave!

Goa along with the west coast of India has been witnessing a heat wave like condition since Saturday February 21, 2015, which is expected to last till Tuesday 24th. Day temperatures as recorded at Panjim have crossed 35C which is 3C above normal.


This is attributed to delayed onset of the cooler winds from west and north west during the day till after 1300 hrs. As a result the dry winds from the east have a field day resulting in heat wave like condition!

Don't forget to skin protection and headgear if you intend to soak in the sun!
