In some areas of Gujarat, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Telangana and North Karnataka, there is a possibility of more than normal days on the day of Lu. Usually, in many parts of the country except southwest India, one to three days in May.

Different ways to count the day of heat
The year 2024 was one of the most hot years for India. Last year, he had an impact of heatwave for 554 days in the country. There are 365 days a year, but there is a different way to count them for heatwave. Suppose a month was 10 days in Delhi, 15 days in Rajasthan, 12 days in UP and 8 days in Bihar, then heatwave will be considered 45 (10+15+12+8).
That is, the total incidents of heatwave in these four states that month are 45, not 45 days in a month. In 2024, 554 Heatwave Day means the total incidents of heatwave in the country, not from the days of Calendar.
