Lucknow: When the rainy season continues to be calm, the city witnessed the hottest up to July in the last six years on Thursday.
High moisture levels make the day more uncomfortable.

Relative humidity is between 44-72%.
As a result of high moisture, heat felt by people 2-3 degrees more than the actual temperature.
Previously, the maximum 40.2 degree temperature Celsius was recorded on July 5, 2015, and 41.4 degrees Celsius on July 1, 2012.
The state, currently, witnesses an unusual trend.
Districts in the northwest and northeast of Nepalese can witness storms on Friday and Saturday, while those in the southeast and southwest, including the Bundelkhand, can experience heat waves.
As a result, east and center which includes Lucknow staggered under hot and humid conditions.
The reason for such weather conditions is that the moisture of the east wind comes from Bay Bay dominates east and north, while the dried northwest wind of Rajasthan hit the southern region.
Monsun arrived on June 13 and was Lucknow on June 18, but losing steam a few days later.
Since then the stuffy conditions have been valid.
