Raipur
India
Raipur is projected to face significant climate hazards in the coming years, particularly extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes that threaten public health. Heavy rainfall events may lead to flooding, while prolonged drought conditions could impact water availability and agriculture. The city faces an elevated risk of arbovirus transmission and a growing threat from malaria, which strains healthcare resources. These interconnected climate risks underscore the city’s vulnerabilities and the urgent need to address them as the climate continues to change. Without well-defined technology-enabled climate resilience solutions, the city remains exposed to these growing climate challenges.
Hazard Outlook
How will Raipur's projected climate hazards compare to other cities under a 3.0°C future warming scenario?
Maximum Temperature
Raipur's projected maximum temperature of 12.2°C is among the highest of all cities globally under a 3.0°C warming scenario.
Longest Heatwave
Raipur may experience heatwaves lasting up to 7 days, among the highest of all other cities.
Maximum Rainfall
Raipur's projected maximum rainfall of 15 mm is among the highest of all cities globally.
Heavy Rainfall Days
With 10 days of heavy rainfall expected, Raipur ranks near the median of cities for extreme precipitation events.
Elevation
At 296 m elevation, Raipur faces moderate risk from coastal flooding and sea level rise.
