ABSTRACT
A model presented of the surprising month of May
2015 that recorded maximum temperatures in Rajasthan, Gujarat,
Telangana, Andhra and Odisha belt of heat wave this year.
The model identifies the belt around Rajasthan, Gujarat, Telangana,
Andhra and Odisha contrasted with sand storms originating from Iraq, Iran
and Pakistan that engulfed Delhi and other places in the North India.
Demarcation is very clear cut. So far more than 1,400 people have died in the state
of Andhra Pradesh. Present study identifies the dual system of Sand Storms and the Heat Wave conditions in India mostly the later arising from the Rajasthan desert area.

Minister Shinzo Abe announced on Thursday a $110 billion investment plan for
infrastructure projects in Asia.
A violent volcanic eruption in Japan
forced evacuation of an Island on Friday 29th May 2015, as huge columns of ash
was shot high into the sky. Plume reached 29500 feet rocketed from Mount
Shindake on the far southern island of Kuchinoerabu.
The 7.8-magnitude earthquake was centered 874 km (543 miles)
from the Japanese capital, at a depth of more than 660 km. The earthquake
struck at 20:30 local time (11:30 GMT). One will have to wait for the reports to know if there is any connection between Mount Shindake Volcano Eruption with the earthquake.
Buildings in the capital New Delhi
swayed for almost a minute as the quake built in intensity. Mild tremors were also felt at many
parts in north India including Delhi.
OBSERVATIONS
17th Storm Auckland, New Zealand
Relief workers tried desperately on Tuesday, Cyclone Pam Monday March 16th 2015, to reach Vanuatu's remote outer islands that were smashed by a monstrous cyclone, as the United Nations reported that 24 people were confirmed dead and 3,300 displaced by the storm that tore through the South Pacific archipelago. Radio and telephone communications with hard-hit outer islands were just beginning to be restored, but remained incredibly patchy three days after what the country's president called a "monster" storm.
Tokyo: Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced on Thursday a $110 billion investment plan for infrastructure projects in Asia in an apparent counter to China's move to launch a new development bank. Abe said in a speech in Tokyo that Japan and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) will boost their assistance by 30 per cent to offer the massive investment aid under a five-year public-private partnership vision.

SUMMER WEATHER IN INDIA
Grip of heat wave
Temperatures have been rising in Central, Northwest, parts of East and Peninsular India for the last few days. Heat wave will continue over Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, parts of Andhra Pradesh and Jharkhand during the next couple of days. Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, north Rajasthan and west Uttar Pradesh are reeling under hot weather conditions for last couple of days. The Safdarjung observatory in Delhi saw the day temperature settle at 43.6°C, on Friday. Heat wave conditions prevail at the Palam airport with maximum at 45.2°C, which is 5 degrees above the normal average. Friday was undoubtedly the hottest day of the season.
Heatwave-like conditions are prevailing in the adjoining states of Punjab and Haryana as well.
Weather in East India
On Friday, maximum in Allahabad was 5 degrees above normal at 47°C. Sultanpur and Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh also witnessed heat wave conditions and both recorded 45°C as maximum temperature. In Jharkhand, Chaibasa was 8 degrees above normal at 44.3°C. Day temperatures in Daltonganj was 5 degrees above normal at 46.3°C. Maximums in Giridih and Jamshedpur hovered around 43°C.
Weather in Peninsular India
The Vidarbha region is sizzling with heat wave conditions. Chandrapur is at 47.6°C, while Nagpur recorded 46.5°C as maximum on Friday.In Andhra Pradesh, maximum at Vijayawada is 6 degrees above normal at 47.2°C. Machilipatnam also saw the mercury rise 7 degrees above average to touch 46.3°C. Pre-Monsoon heat is at its peak in the above mentioned areas. There will be no respite from heat in the coming days as well.
Heat wave toll rose to 432 in Telangana (246) and Andhra (186). Nalgonda alone reports 58 deaths.
IN VISAKHAPATNAM
It became cloudy in the afternoon from 2 pm to 4 pm but didn't rain on Monday 25th March 2015. Again on Tuesday 26th May 2015,morning it was cloudy but no rain nor summer heat lowered. People bathing from 2 pm to 8 pm everyday to bear the summer heat. But Wednesday it became cool and in the afternoon it was cloudy weather.
LAND SLIDE BLOCKS NEPAL RIVER
On Monday 25th May 2015 thousands of panic-stricken people fled their homes fearing flash floods after an overnight landslide blocked in midnight, into Kali Gandaki river in Myagdi district about 140 kms northwest of Kathmandu, in quake-hit Nepal's mountainous northwest that raised water levels by 150 meters (490 feet). Two-km artificial water lake was overflowing. The hard rocks blocking the river have to be cut but sudden surge might be dangerous. It could bring floods in districts of Parabat, Syangja, Gulmi, Palpa, Nawalparasi and Chitwan.

This map doesn't reveal the observations of the present
author that the heat wave in India mostly arise from the Rajasthan desert
region of India.
Below the map reveals the distinct regions of Sand storms and the Heat Wave conditions in India.
The present study notes that the sand storms from the Iran, Iraq and Pakistan effected Delhi and heat wave conditions over Rajasthan, Gujarat, Telangana, Andhra and Odisha states form a different 'semi-circular' chain of places.
Present study identifies the dual system of Sand Storms and the Heat Wave conditions in India mostly the later arising from the Rajasthan desert area.
The death toll in India’s heatwave has climbed towards 1,500 as the country sweltered in one of the worst bouts of hot weather for several years. Southern India has borne the brunt of the sudden spell of hot, dry weather. So far more than 1,000 people have died in the state of Andhra Pradesh. The death toll in neighboring Telangana, where temperatures hit 48 C (118 F) over the weekend, stood at 340.The massive heatwave sweeping India is starting to ease, with forecasts of rain in some affected states.
Officials say nearly 1,700 people have died in the worst-hit states of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, where temperatures rose above 45C (113F). Clouds have formed over some parts of the two states and weather officials say pre-monsoon showers are likely to provide some relief on Friday.
In 2003, a heat wave led to 3,000 deaths in Andhra Pradesh. Records indicate that it is likely that the numbers of cold days and nights have decreased and the numbers of warm days and nights have increased across most of Asia since about 1950.
Note:Heat wave has not only gripped the plains of North India, but the hills are also experiencing hot and uncomfortable conditions during day time. Some of the places in the region are observing heat wave conditions, which are making matters worse. For example, Shimla, the most favored holiday destination of North India saw the day temperature settle 5 degrees above the monthly normal at 29.3°C, which amounts to heat wave. March to May is the peak time for tourism in the hills. Thousands of tourists flock to the hill states of Jammu and Kashmir.
Before Pushkaralu dry Godavari raises concern. In
worst case of scenario 3 to 4 tmc of
SRSP water would be released which will cover Pushkar ghats from Adilabad to
Khammam.

LONDON
A sudden and massive ice loss in a previously stable region of Antarctica is causing small changes in the gravity field of the Earth, a new study has found. "To date, the glaciers added roughly 300 cubic km of water to the ocean. The changes were observed using the CryoSat-2 satellite, a mission of the European Space Agency dedicated to remote-sensing of ice. By analysing roughly 5 years of the data, the researchers found that the ice surface of some of the glaciers is currently going down by as much as 4m each year.
INDIA WEATHER OF THE HOT SUMMER 2015
An interesting observation by the author is that Rajasthan desert state, Gujarat, Telangana, Andhra and Odisha states fell in line of the hot summer season of this year 2015 from almost the middle of the month of May. Only today the weather in Visakhapatnam was cordial and am able to move out around 4.30 pm.

THURSDAY 28TH MAY 2015
Heat wave to severe heat wave conditions prevailed at a few places over Odisha and coastal AP. Heat wave conditions prevailed at a few places over west MP, Jharkhand and at isolated places over east MP, Vidharbha, Chhattisgarh, Utter Pradesh, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Rajasthan, Punjab, and Telangana. Thunderstorms accompanied by squall occurred at isolated places over Punjab, coastal AP, interior Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and south interior Karnataka. Heavy rainfall occurred at isolated places over Assam, Meghalaya, Nagland, Manipur, Tripura and AP.
Nearly 20,000 people died of the heat in India since 1990. In 2012 and 2013 the AP state undivided accounted for largest number of deaths due to heat wave. Punjab, Utter Pradesh, Odisha and Bihar are the other places of the deaths due to summer heat.
Heat wave claimed 1412 lives in less than a week in May 2015. 168 deaths occurred in AP since Tuesday 26th May 2015 and about 202 deaths occurred in Prakasam district in 2015. AP and Telangana reported about 1345 deaths this year in month of May.

EVEREST IN DANGER
Scientists warn Everest glaciers are at risk of disappearing with at least 70% entirely by the end of 2100 due to change in climate. Shrinking glaciers could affect water supplies in the Everest with volumes of snow melt flowing into DUDH KOSI RIVER. Nepal, the Netherlands and France report that weather patterns on the Everest indicate that impact of rising temperatures on the glaciers.

SOUTHERN AFRICA
An unprecedented drought which has not been witnessed for the last decade is affecting most parts of southern Africa from southern Angola to Botswana, Lesotho, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Namibia. This severe drought has led to crop failure in the region. Major food shortage is being felt in the region. It might be safe to say that the situation in Southern parts of Africa is not good at all and it is likely to become harsher.
AMERICA
The places which have maximum impact include Los Angeles, San Francisco both in California and Reno, Nevada. In fact, in San Francisco there has been a rain-less January this year and this has happened for the first time in 165 years since 1893.

as people living in high-rises rushed out of the buildings.
There were reports of tremors being felt in Japan’s main island of Honshu, where train services were stalled as a result of power failure. Well, Japan would definitely be on high alert after successive days of being under threat, firstly with the volcanic eruption and later the earthquake. One will have to wait for the reports to know if there is any connection between Mount Shindake Volcano Eruption with the earthquake.
Monsoon arrived over Andaman and Nicobar Islands on May 16,
