Hyderabad is set for a scorching day on Friday, April 17, 2026, with the maximum temperature forecast to reach 40 degrees Celsius, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The city will experience predominantly dry weather and hot conditions throughout the day.
The IMD has indicated that similar hot and dry weather is likely to persist over the region for the next few days. Residents are advised to take necessary precautions against the heat, including staying hydrated, avoiding direct sun exposure during peak afternoon hours, and wearing light clothing.
This temperature is consistent with the typical onset of intense summer heat in the Telangana region during mid-April. Authorities often issue heatwave warnings when temperatures significantly exceed normal levels, though the forecast for Friday remains below official heatwave thresholds for the area.
