India records highest temperature in national history

The effects of mass global warming have certainly been felt in India, as a record high for the country was recorded yesterday at 123.8 degrees Fahrenheit. The record was set in the western state of Rajasthan, but other locations around the country have experienced record highs as well. A massive drought has also plagued India, and certainly doesn't help with the sweltering temperatures. According to CNN, the record highs have prompted warnings across lower elevations, as they can cause dehydration and other medical issues. The annual monsoon season is expected to bring relief to the dry country when it brings its rain.
