Hey Pune peeps, get ready for some heavy rainfall in the coming years! According to Dr. R. Krishnan, Director of IITM, intense downpours are on the rise, leading to floods and landslides. And guess what’s to blame? Greenhouse gas emissions causing global warming! The IMD is working hard to develop a model called the Unified Earth System to tackle this issue.
But wait, there’s more! Dr. Krishnan also mentioned how difficult it is to predict heavy rainfall accurately, especially with climate change thrown into the mix. However, the IMD is on it, issuing timely warnings two days in advance to help us prepare. With extreme rainfall events becoming more frequent, urban areas like Pune are facing challenges like waterlogging. So, let’s all pitch in and focus on water conservation efforts, shall we?
And it’s not just heavy rainfall we need to worry about – rising temperatures are also a concern. In Pune, maximum temperatures have been hitting new highs, thanks to urban heat islands formed by rapid urbanization. To study this further, a research initiative on urban meteorology has been launched, starting with Delhi’s weather patterns. So, keep an eye out for more updates on how our cities are impacting the weather!
Stay tuned for more updates on how climate change is shaping our weather patterns, folks!
