Ngokutsho kweTimes of India, abantu abali-19 basweleke ngenxa yobushushu oburhanelwa entshona ye-Odisha, abantu abali-16 basweleke e-Uttar Pradesh, abantu aba-5 basweleke eBihar, abantu aba-4 basweleke eRajasthan kwaye umntu omnye wasweleka ePunjab.
Ubushushu bugqugqisile kwiindawo ezininzi zaseHaryana, eChandigarh-Delhi nase-Uttar Pradesh. ISebe leMeteorological laseIndiya (IMD) lithe oku kwenzeka nakwiindawo ezikude kwiindawo zaseMadhya Pradesh, ePunjab, eRajasthan nase-Uttarakhand.
Iingcali ze-IMD zifumanise ukuba ubushushu obuxelwe yi-Automatic Weather Station (AWS) sensor eMungeshpur “bungaphezulu ngama-3 degrees Celsius ngaphezu kobushushu obuphezulu obuxelwe zizixhobo eziqhelekileyo”, itsho ingxelo.
UMphathiswa weSayensi yezeNdalo uKiren Rijiju wabelane ngengxelo eyilwayo ngesiganeko saseMungeshpur, esithi ubushushu obuphezulu oburekhodwe yi-AWS bungaphezulu kwamadigri amathathu kunezixhobo eziqhelekileyo.
Ingxelo icebisa ukuba isebe lezixhobo zomhlaba le-IMD Pune lifanele livavanye rhoqo kwaye lilinganise zonke izinzwa zobushushu ze-AWS.
Ikwacebisa uvavanyo lokwamkelwa kwezixhobo kwifektri kumaqondo obushushu ahlukeneyo ngaphambi kokufaka i-AWS kwaye ifuna ukugcinwa rhoqo kwezixhobo ezinjalo ezifakwe kulo lonke ilizwe.
I-IMD ithe ukufundwa kwe-AWS eMungeshpur kubukhali xa kuthelekiswa nobushushu obulinganiswa kwezinye izikhululo ze-AWS kunye nokujonga ngesandla eDelhi.
“Ukongeza, ubushushu obuphezulu ePalam budlule ubushushu obuphezulu obuyirekhodi obuyi-48.4 degrees Celsius oburekhodwe nge-26 kaMeyi 1998,” litshilo isebe lemozulu.
NgoLwesihlanu, i-IMD ithe ukungasebenzi kakuhle kwe-sensor kubangele ukufundwa kobushushu obuphezulu kwi-AWS efakwe ePanjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth eNagpur.
Ubushushu obuphezulu kwiDelhi National Capital Region bujongwa kusetyenziswa izitishi zokujonga umhlaba ezihlanu kunye nezitishi zemozulu ezizenzekelayo.
Ubushushu obuphezulu obubonwe ngoMeyi 29 babuphakathi kwama-45.2 nama-49.1 degrees Celsius, kodwa inkqubo ye-AWS efakwe eMungeshpur ibike ukuba ubushushu obuphezulu bungama-52.9 degrees Celsius.
Ukususela ngoJanuwari kulo nyaka, ii-AWS ezingaphezu kwama-800 zithunyelwe kulo lonke ilizwe ukuze zijongwe imozulu.
