Karnataka is experiencing unseasonal heat with temperatures rising 2 to 6 degrees Celsius above normal due to strong northwesterly winds, a dry spell, and clear skies.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) noted no heatwave conditions but expects rainfall to increase from mid-September, with cooler temperatures likely after the September equinox as wind patterns shift.
