Maximum temperatures again cross 20 °C (68 °F) and days become pleasant. By mid-February or somewhat beyond, minimum temperatures cross the 10 °C (50 °F) mark and days start getting warmer gradually, marking the end of winter. Delhi can sometimes have a prolonged season of chill, extending into March. [33] [34] [35]
During the Triassic period of 251–199.6 Ma, the Indian subcontinent was the part of a vast supercontinent known as Pangaea.Despite its position within a high-latitude belt at 55–75° S—latitudes now occupied by parts of the Antarctic Peninsula, as opposed to India's current position between 8 and 37° N—India likely experienced a humid temperate climate with warm and frost-free weather ...
The climate of New Delhi is a dry-winter humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cwa) bordering on a hot semi-arid climate (Köppen BSh) with high variation between summer and winter in terms of both temperature and rainfall. The temperature varies from 46 °C (115 °F) in summers to around 10 °C (50 °F) in winters.
The highest natural ground surface temperature ever recorded may have been an alleged reading of 93.9 °C (201.0 °F) at Furnace Creek, California, United States, on 15 July 1972. [7] In 2011, a ground temperature of 84 °C (183.2 °F) was recorded in Port Sudan, Sudan. [8] The theoretical maximum possible ground surface temperature has been ...
A humid subtropical climate is a temperate climate type characterized by hot and humid summers, and cool to mild winters. These climates normally lie on the southeast side of all continents (except Antarctica), generally between latitudes 25° and 40° and are located poleward from adjacent tropical climates, and equatorward from either humid continental (in North America and Asia) or oceanic ...
Extreme minimum temperature 16 to 22 December 2012, computer generated contours, based on preliminary data. Indian cold wave during the winter months of 2012 killed at least 92 people across northern and eastern India. [1] [2] The drop in temperature had a devastating effect on the hundreds of thousands of homeless people in India.
The 2010–2011 winter caused more cold-wave-related deaths. [14] [15] This time, Churk, Sonbhadra district, ranked coldest with 1.4 °C or 34.5 °F. [14] On 13 January 2013, Kanpur recorded its all-time low temperature when the temperature plunged to −1.1 °C or 30.0 °F and on the same day, Agra recorded −0.7 °C or 30.7 °F.
This is a list of countries and sovereign states by temperature. Average yearly temperature is calculated by averaging the minimum and maximum daily temperatures in the country, averaged for the years 1991 – 2020, from World Bank Group , derived from raw gridded climatologies from the Climatic Research Unit .
