Time of India3 hours ago

Bhopal: The city witnessed its first spell of proper, widespread showers after the onset of the monsoon on Sunday. The showers during the day sharply dipped the day temperature. The variation between the day temperature and night temperature was barely two degrees.
The day temperature in Bhopal on Sunday was recorded at 26.6 degrees Celsius, nine degrees less than the normal mark, while the night temperature in the city was 24.2 degrees Celsius, a degree less than the normal. Between 8:30 am and 5:30 pm, the city recorded 21 mm of rain.
In the forecast for Bhopal on Monday, the meteorological dept said there would be a cloudy sky with light to moderate rainfall. Day and night temperatures would be respectively 28 degrees Celsius and 24 degrees Celsius, while the average wind speed will be 22 kilometres per hour.

The associated upper air cyclonic circulation extends up to 5.8 km above mean sea level, tilting southwards with height. It is likely to move slowly northwestwards and weaken gradually during the next 12 hours. An upper air cyclonic circulation lies over Bangladesh and adjoining Gangetic West Bengal, tilting southwards.
The east-west trough runs from south Pakistan to above the cyclonic circulation over Bangladesh and adjoining Gangetic West Bengal across central parts of Rajasthan, northwest Madhya Pradesh, and the cyclonic circulation associated with the low-pressure area over central parts of south Uttar Pradesh and neighbourhood and Jharkhand in the region.

Eastern half of U.S. sweltering again, with dangerous heat wave expected to last until midweek

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Tens of millions of people across the Midwest and East endured dangerously hot temperatures again on Sunday as a rare June heat wave that gripped much of the U.S. was expected to last into the coming week. Most of the northeastern quadrant of the country from Minnesota to Maine was under some type of heat advisory. So were parts of Arkansas, Tennessee, Louisiana and Mississippi, the National Weather Service said. The weather service office in Wakefield, Virginia, warned of sweltering conditions through Wednesday. 'Please plan ahead to take frequent breaks if you must be outside, stay hydrated and provide plenty of water and shade for any outdoor animals,' the office said on X. Sunday marked the second straight day of extreme heat across the Midwest and East Coast. Heat indices on Saturday hit 103 F (39.4 C) in Chicago and 101 F (38.3 C) in Madison, Wisconsin, turning that city's annual naked bike ride into a sticky and sweaty affair. Meteorologists say a phenomenon known as a heat dome, a large area of high pressure in the upper atmosphere that traps heat and humidity, is responsible for the extreme temperatures. 'I just want to sit in my air conditioning' Lynn Watkins, 53, is the director of Sacred Hearts Day Care in Sun Prairie, a Madison suburb. She said that she tried to sit outside Saturday to grill but it was so hot she had to go inside. She plans to cancel all outdoor activities at the day care on Monday with highs around 93 F (33.8 C) forecast. 'I can't stand being outside when it's like this,' she said. 'I just want to sit in my air conditioning.' The temperature reached 80 degrees Fahrenheit (26.6 degrees Celsius) in the Chicago area by 7:30 a.m. Sunday. Forecasts called for heat indices of between 100 and 105 degrees F (37.7 to 40.5 degrees C). The heat index in Pittsburgh was expected to top 105 F. The temperature in Columbus, Ohio, was 77 F (25 C) at 8:30 a.m. Highs there were expected to reach 97 F (36 C) with a heat index around 104 F (40 C). Forecasts called for a heat index of 100 F in Philadelphia on Sunday, with a 108 F (42.2 C) heat index on Monday. Philadelphia declares a heat emergency The city's public health department declared a heat emergency Sunday lasting until Wednesday evening. Officials directed residents to air-conditioned libraries, community centers and other locations, and set up a 'heat line' staffed by medical professionals to discuss conditions and illnesses made worse by the heat. At Lincoln Financial Field, officials said each fan attending Sunday's FIFA World Cup match would be allowed to bring in one 20-ounce (0.6-liter) plastic bottle of water. With temperatures in the mid-80s, Maryland's Rehoboth Beach was crowded Sunday. 'It's only going to get worse,' said beachgoer Vak Kobiashvili. 'People are trying to get out to the beach before it's too hot to really even manage to be outside.' Kobiashvili said even his dog didn't want to be outside. 'East Coast weather, at least from my perspective, is just very sweaty in the summer,' he said. 'It's that walking through a swamp kind of feeling.' Forecasters warned the heat index in Cromwell, Connecticut, would reach 105 F on Sunday, which could make life brutal for golfers Tommy Fleetwood and Keegan Bradley as they compete during the final round of the Travelers Championship. The index on the TPC River Highlands course stood at 98 degrees F (36.6 degrees C) at 3:18 p.m. Fans sought shelter under trees and on air-conditioned benches. Many lined up for water at a hydration station near the ninth green. Karin Skalina, of New York, had been in the sun-soaked bleachers by the eighth green and eventually sought relief on a ventilated cooling bench. 'Didn't work,' she said. '(We're) trying to follow the shade,' Skalina said. Courtney Kamansky, of Newington, Connecticut, had been to the tournament before and came prepared with extra water bottles. Asked if she was able to find shade, she pointed to her umbrella and said, 'I bring it with me.' Heat to persist into the coming week with highest temperatures shifting eastward Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz got sick Saturday while playing in the extreme heat against the Cardinals in St. Louis. Seattle Mariners reliever Trent Thornton, facing the Cubs in Chicago, also fell ill. The heat is expected to persist into the coming week, with the highest temperatures shifting eastward. New York City is expected to see highs around 95 F (35 C) on Monday and Tuesday. Boston is on track for highs approaching 100 F (37.7 C) on Tuesday, and temperatures in Washington, D.C., were expected to hit 100 F on Tuesday and Wednesday. Mark Gehring, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Sullivan, Wisconsin, said this level of heat is not uncommon during the summer months in the U.S., although it usually takes hold in mid-July or early August. The most unusual facet of this heat wave is the sheer amount of territory sweltering under it, he said. 'It's basically everywhere east of the Rockies,' he said, referring to the Rocky Mountains. 'That is unusual, to have this massive area of high dewpoints and heat.'

Real Madrid beats Pachuca 3-1 in Club World Cup while playing most of the match with 10 men

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Jude Bellingham and Arda Güler scored first-half goals and short-handed Real Madrid bounced back from a disappointing performance in its Club World Cup opener to beat Pachuca 3-1 on Sunday in front of 70,248 spectators at Bank of America Stadium. Seven minutes in, defender Raul Asencio received a red card, forcing Real Madrid to play the remainder of the match with 10 men. It hardly mattered as Madrid dominated the Mexican club rest of the way. Bellingham got the Spanish power on the board in the 35th minute when he took a pass from Fran Garcia just inside the box and belted a perfectly placed left-footed shot past goalkeeper Carlos Moreno into the right corner. Eight minutes later, Güler made it 2-0 when he delivered a right-footed shot from the center of the box to the bottom left corner off an assist from Gonzalo García. Federico Valverde put the final touches on the win in the second half with a sliding right-footed shot off an assist from Brahim Díaz. Goalkeeper Thabaut Courtois was on form with five saves in the first half. He turned away two point-blank shots in the early going and finished with 10 saves. Elías Montiel ended Courtois' bid for a shutout when he scored in the 80th minute for Pachuca, which fell to 0-2 in group play. Kylian Mbappé has missed both Club World Cup starts as he continues to recover from being hospitalized with acute gastroenteritis. He did not travel to Charlotte, but the team remains hopeful that he'll be ready to play on Thursday night against Salzburg. Key moment There were some uneasy minutes early in the match for Madrid when Asencio pulled down Pacheco's Agustin Palavecino as he was entering the box following a breakaway, forcing Aurelein Tchouameni to move to center back. But Madrid stayed on the attack and Bellingham had the breakthrough goal. Takeaways Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Madrid looked very much out of sync on Wednesday, playing Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal to a 1-1 draw in coach Xabi Alonso's first game when Federico Valverde's stoppage-time penalty was saved. That changed on Sunday as the talented roster began to mesh, with precise passing leading to both first-half goals. Noteworthy The game was played on a temporary grass field. The stadium is home to the NFL's Carolina Panthers, who play on an artificial surface. … With temperatures in the low 90s Fahrenheit (low 30s Celsius), players were given a water breaks midway through each half. ___ AP soccer:

Abbotsford Canucks: Resilience is name of game amid heat to capture Calder Cup on road

Even if they're familiar how heat can contribute to bad bounces or getting an edge caught in a divot at the wrong time. The Abbotsford Canucks lead the best-of-seven Calder Cup championship series 3-2 after a heartbreaking 4-3 overtime loss Saturday at the Abbotsford Centre. A pass by mercurial winger Jesse Puljujarvi deflected off the skates of Ty Mueller and Guillaume Brisebois and trickled in. A bizarre finale in a series where three games have required extra time. While the Canucks have wiggle room to return home with the league trophy, they don't want to be forced into a Game 7 Wednesday where anything can — and probable would occur — on that slab of suspect ice.

Abbotsford hasn't won two straight in the post-season, and it's been more than two months since the Canucks dropped two in a row during the regular season. Canucks rookie head coach Manny Malhotra knows his club's mantra for Game 6 could provide the parent Vancouver Canucks with their first AHL affiliate title. The Utica Comets advanced to the Calder Cup final series in 2015, but fell in five games to the Manchester Monarchs.

First to pull themselves out of the muck of a 14-15-1-1 struggle in January before a franchise-record 13-game win streak and finishing on a 16-1-1 run. 'That's been the makeup of our group the whole playoffs,' stressed Malhtora. 'We're looking forward to the next one. When we decide to play like ourselves and advance play or forecheck, it works. We've proven it. And the fact we were able to bounce back and find our game was a positive. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. That said, Malhotra wasn't letting his team off the hook in Game 5. 'We didn't establish our game early enough,' he admitted. 'You can't wade into a game. You have to give Charlotte credit. Their backs were to the wall and they came out ready and threw everything at us. They're a volume-shooting team and get pucks to the net from every angle. 'We didn't do ourselves any favours in the second period with puck turnovers, and they were able to transition and capitalize. Ultimately, that is what this time of year is all about, limiting mistakes and capitalizing when force turnovers. There were a lot of instances where we didn't look like ourselves. 'We got on a roll in overtime, had some quality looks, and (Max) Sasson hits a post. The guys are ticked off. It would have been an incredible evening for the fans. It would have been a storybook ending, but we're not a storybook team. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. 'We grind. We work for what we get.' There's reason for optimism Monday. Arturs Silovs covers puck against MacKenzie Entwistle of Charlotte Checkers in Game 2 of Calder Cup Finals on June 15. Photo by Charlotte Checkers/Flickr / Jacob Kupferman Arturs Silovs, 24, is capable of being a difference-maker with sparkling post-season numbers. He's 15-7-0 with a 2.01 goals-against average, .931 saves percentage and five shutouts, one short of the league record. Linus Karlsson, 25, scored twice Saturday, had eight shots, and leads AHL playoff scoring with 25 points (13-12). He's also second in shots (64) behind linemate the 24-year-old Sasson (72), who had 14 post-season points (5-9). Arshdeep Bains, 24, rounds out the line. He also scored in Game 5 and had five shots. Karlsson accepted a challenge to be more of a leader in his third AHL season, and in recalls to the parent Canucks, his willingness to establish a net presence bodes well for next NHL season. He had 39 points (23-16) in 32 AHL regular-season games this season. 'It's just what he does — it's just the kind of player he is,' lauded Malhotra. 'The offensive numbers stand out, but we look at the number of puck battles he wins and coming out of the corner. He got to the dirty areas and gets to the net front. 'He's not a fancy player, but extremely effective in doing little things well and gets rewarded for it.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. It's also imperative for the leadership group to be prominent Monday. Captain Chase Wouters has but four playoff points (2-2) but is adept at shot blocking and the tough stuff that doesn't show up on highlight reels. 'If I'm honest, the room is kind of running itself,' admitted Malhotra. 'That's a large part of where we are right now. It's the ability to manage the emotions of the room and turning the page. We'll be ready to go.' Wouters, 25, is an undrafted grinder and his 28 regular-season points (10-28) in 72 outings don't tell the whole story. 'We left it all out there and it's unfortunate,' he said of the Game 5 setback. 'We'll look at film an regroup. Even after wins, it's the next day and it's like nothing happened and that's been our mindset all year. We're looking forward to the challenge. They (Checkers) are a great team and they're not going to go away. 'Ice conditions aside, we can find ways to create more and get back to playing our game. We're going to be good. I'm confident in our group.' bkuzma@ Read More Vancouver Canucks News News Vancouver Canucks Vancouver Canucks
