India records its warmest October since 1901

NEW DELHI: India recorded its warmest October since 1901, with mean temperatures rising 1.23 degrees Celsius above the usual level, the weather office reported on Friday. It also forecasted a warmer-than-average November, offering no signs of an approaching winter.

Addressing a press conference here, India Meteorological Department (IMD) Director General Mrityunjay Mohapatra attributed the warmer weather to the absence of western disturbances and influx of easterly winds due to active low pressure systems in the Bay of Bengal.

The mean temperature in October was recorded at 26.92 degrees Celsius, the warmest since 1901, against the normal of 25.69 degrees Celsius, Mohapatra said.
