Hardoi
India
Hardoi is projected to experience extreme climate hazards in the coming years. The city will face increasingly dangerous heat extremes that can threaten public health and exacerbate heat-related illnesses. Heavy rainfall events may lead to flooding, putting infrastructure and residences at risk, while prolonged drought conditions are expected to threaten water resources and agricultural productivity. These climate risks could result in significant economic vulnerabilities and increased food insecurity. As these climate challenges intensify, they will demand urgent attention to enhance the city's resilience and adaptability. The intersection of these hazards demonstrates the urgent need for comprehensive strategies to mitigate the impacts on the community.
Hazard Outlook

Hardoi's projected maximum temperature of 11.8°C is among the highest of all cities globally under a 3.0°C warming scenario.
Maximum Rainfall
Hardoi's projected maximum rainfall of 15 mm is among the highest of all cities globally.
Longest Heatwave
Hardoi may experience heatwaves lasting up to 6 days, higher than most other cities.
Heavy Rainfall Days
With 10 days of heavy rainfall expected, Hardoi ranks higher than most cities for extreme precipitation events.
Elevation
At 145 m elevation, Hardoi faces moderate risk from coastal flooding and sea level rise.
Exposure Summary
Adaptation Priorities
Hardoi faces high exposure to max temp, max rain and elevated exposure to heatwave, heavy rain. These areas may warrant priority attention in adaptation planning.
