     This is not the first time that I have voiced my displeasure at the temperature readings given by the news bulletin emenating from Goa. I cannot understand why the mid-day temperature is not given. Even the previous day's temp. would suffice to gauge the temperature in Goa.

      The temperature given is the temperature in the early morning and this is a pleasant one. One hardly leaves the house so early in the morning and I would like to know the temperature in the mid-day which is torrid at times.

        As an example, the current temperature outside my house is 0 deg.C. and the midday temperature could rise to 20 deg.C. This permits me to dress appropriately and to ride a bicycle. The temperature given is deceptive and I suggest that both the lowest temperature  and the midday temp.be given so that Goans can be prepared for the higher temperature instead of the pleasant morning temperature.
