Agartala, 29th March 2025: The Meteorological Department of Agartala has issued a Yellow Warning for Tripura, predicting that the ongoing hot and humid weather will persist for the next three days.
According to the department, the region is experiencing high temperatures due to partly cloudy sky conditions, intense solar radiation, and the influx of hot westerly winds. As a result, daytime temperatures are expected to reach 36°C or higher in some parts of the state and may remain 3 to 4°C above normal levels in several districts.
Additionally, an increase in atmospheric moisture in certain districts is likely to further escalate humidity levels, exacerbating discomfort.
The department has also advised to avoid going out in the sun, especially between 12.00 noon and 3.00 p.m, sufficient drinking of water and as often as possible, even if not thirsty, wear lightweight, light-coloured, loose, and porous cotton clothes.
“While travelling, carry water with you. If you work outside, use a hat or an umbrella and also use a damp cloth on your head, neck, face and limbs. Do not leave children or pets in parked vehicles. If you feel faint or ill, see a doctor immediately. Use ORS, homemade drinks like lassi, torani (rice water), lemon water, buttermilk, etc. which helps to re-hydrate the body. Keep animals in shade and give them plenty of water to drink. Keep your home cool, use curtains, shutters or sunshade and open windows at night. Use fans, damp clothing and take bath in cold water frequently”, the department said.
