One of India’s longest and strongest heat waves in decades, with temperatures reaching 123°F (51° C) has killed at least 36 lives since it began in May, and the government has warned that the suffering might continue as the arrival of monsoon (季风) rains has been delayed.
India’s heat waves have grown particularly strong in the past decade, killing thousands of people and affecting an increasing number of states. This year, the extreme temperatures have struck large parts of northern and central India.
Anup Kumar Srivastava, an expert at India’s National Disaster Management Authority, said the number of Indian states hit by heat waves was expected to grow to 23 this year from 9 in 2015. He said, “This year, the number of heat wave days has also increased — and it’s not just day temperatures, night temperatures have also been high.” He added that the coming storms would bring down temperatures in some areas, but that heat waves might pick up again until the monsoon rains arrive.
India’s Meteorological department warns that extreme heat brings a very high likelihood of developing heat illness and heat stroke in all ages. Medical authorities have canceled leaves for doctors at hospitals in Churu as the number of patients has soared. Schools in central India have remained closed.
In the capital, New Delhi, temperatures reached a record 118.4°F (45°C) on Monday, June 10. Clouds on Tuesday promised rain, but largely failed to deliver. Dust storms the next day lowered temperatures to around 100 °F (38°C).
Heat records around the world are more likely to be broken as average temperatures climb upward because of rising greenhouse gas emissions.
印度几十年来持续时间最长、最强的热浪之一,自5月份开始以来,气温达到123华氏度(51摄氏度),已造成至少36人死亡,政府警告说,由于季风降雨的到来被推迟,痛苦可能会继续。
印度的热浪在过去十年中变得尤为强烈,造成数千人死亡,并影响到越来越多的邦。今年,极端气温袭击了印度北部和中部的大部分地区。
印度国家灾害管理局的专家阿纳普·库马尔·斯里瓦斯塔瓦表示,预计今年印度遭受热浪袭击的邦数将从2015年的9个增加到23个。他说:“今年,热浪天气的天数也有所增加,不仅是白天温度高,夜间温度也很高。”他补充说,即将到来的风暴会降低一些地区的气温,但在季风降雨到来之前,热浪可能会再次抬头。
印度气象部门警告说,极端高温使所有年龄段的人都很有可能患上中暑和中暑。由于患者数量激增,医疗当局已经取消了楚鲁医院医生的休假。印度中部的学校仍然关闭。
6月10日星期一,首都新德里的气温达到了创纪录的118.4华氏度(45摄氏度)。周二的阴云预示会下雨,但基本上没能实现。第二天的沙尘暴使气温降至38摄氏度左右。
由于温室气体排放的增加,平均气温上升,世界各地的高温记录更有可能被打破。
