After Cyclone Ditwah had passed, the coastal regions of Andhra Pradesh began to cool down rapidly. Dry and cold winds have affected three coastal districts in North: Alluri Seetharama Raju (ASR), Visakhapatnam, and Anakapalli for the last few days. The Alluri Seetharama Raju district has been recording single-digit temperatures, sometimes as low as below five degrees Celsius. The coastal city of Vizag has also been a recipient of colder, harsher weather, especially for those living on the outskirts.
During the early hours of Tuesday, 9th December, Akkireddipalem in Pendurthi recorded a shocking 13.5 °C. Regions around the airport, including Pendurthi, Sujatha Nagar, Tunglam, Narava, and Chinnamudidiwada, have experienced severe cold winds, particularly in the evenings.
Additionally, Gajuwaka and Padmanabdam have documented 15.9°C and 16°C. For places like Arilova, Anandapuram, and Goapalpatnam, the temperatures have been around 17°C. Bheemunipatnam, on the other hand, has remained somewhat warmer than the others at 18°C. These cold wave conditions have made living conditions difficult, especially for night-time employees and outdoor workers.
Araku has noted a temperature of 4.7°C, marking the second consecutive day of temperatures below 5°C. G. Madugula marked a frigid 5.5°C, while Dumbriguda logged a close 5.7°C. The district hub, Paderu, touched a chilly 6.7°C. Pedabayalu reported a temperature of 7.1°C, and temperatures hovered near 8 °C across Munchingputtu, Chintapalli, Lambasingi, and Hukumpeta.
Temperatures below 15°C have been recorded in several parts of the Anakapalle district. Madugula, Vaddadi, Makavarapalem, and Cheedikada have seen temperatures around 12°C. Ravikamatham, Narsipatnam, and Yelamanchili logged close to 13°C. Anakapalli town has recorded a minimum temperature of 14.7°C.
