The Amaravati Meteorological Department has issued an alert for Andhra Pradesh, warning that maximum temperatures are expected to rise further in the coming days.

The department forecasts continued dry weather across north coastal Andhra Pradesh, Yanam, south coastal Andhra Pradesh, and Rayalaseema for the next three days.

They recommend staying hydrated with cold drinks and taking measures to prevent sunburn. The department has advised the public to stay alert and prioritize safety during this period of rising temperatures.
