SHIMLA:
Himachal Pradesh experienced the
hottest day of the summer season on Friday with Una recording the highest temperature of 44.7 degrees in the hilly state, the meteorological department said.
May 31 is so far the hottest day of the season with highest temperature crossing the 44-degree mark in
Una district, Shimla MeT Centre director
Manmohan Singh said.
The maximum temperatures across the state rose by 3-4 degrees Celsius on Friday with Una recording the highest temperature of 44.7 degrees Celsius, he said.
There is no sign of relief from the continuing heatwave as the weather will remain dry in the coming some days, the weatherman added.
Even the places in high and
mid hills of the state -- where tourists come to get relief from heatwave -- are reeling under scorching heat during the day.
