Malegaon
India
Malegaon is projected to face significant climate hazards in the coming years, including extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes that pose serious health risks to its residents. The city will experience more frequent heavy rainfall events, increasing the likelihood of flooding and water-related challenges. Prolonged drought conditions are also anticipated, negatively affecting agricultural output and water supply. Additionally, the risk of high arbovirus transmission is expected to elevate, aligning with an increase in malaria cases in the area. These climate risks contribute to vulnerabilities that require attention and action to protect public health and the local environment.
