Telangana Braces for Sub-Normal Temperatures, No Cold Wave Alert Issued
Hyderabad, December 24, 2025 – Telangana is expected to experience a drop in minimum temperatures, dipping 3°C to 4°C below normal in isolated pockets over the next two days, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). While the IMD bulletin doesn’t signal a cold wave, it forecasts dry weather across the state.
Hyderabad will see mainly clear skies transitioning to partly cloudy conditions by evening, with fog or mist expected in the mornings and hazy conditions at night. The maximum and minimum temperatures are predicted to be around 29°C and 13°C, respectively.
Data from the Telangana Development Planning Society (TGDPS) indicates that nine districts already recorded temperatures below 10°C between December 22nd and 23rd. Sirpur in Kumaram Bheem Asifabad recorded the lowest at 7°C. Other locations experiencing sub-10°C temperatures include Kohir (Sangareddy), Moinabad (Rangareddy), and Behempoor (Adilabad).
While the state’s lowest temperature this winter season reached 4.5°C, the record low for the past decade remains 2°C, set on January 10, 2015.
A 2024 report by the TGDPS and the Directorate of Economics and Statistics highlighted the rapid temperature fluctuations in Telangana due to its semi-arid soil. They reported that some districts routinely see temperatures of 5°C in December. In Hyderabad, the outskirts of the city typically experiences the lowest temperatures.
The IMD continues to monitor the situation and will issue updates as needed. Residents are advised to take precautions against the cold.
