India is expected to experience above-normal heatwave days during the upcoming hot weather season from April to June, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). This is due to El Nino conditions, but it is not likely to damage wheat crops, as they are close to harvest. El Nino is expected to persist during April-June, shifting towards La Nina later, which is generally associated with good monsoon rainfall in India. The IMD did not comment on the expected rainfall situation during the monsoon season this year.
