Heavy Rain and Storms Alert Issued for Several States Until October 7

Weather Warning: The monsoon is once again active across North India, including Delhi-NCR. Meanwhile, the Meteorological Department has predicted heavy to very heavy rainfall in some states, including Uttar Pradesh, for the next four days – October 4, 5, 6, and 7. There is also a possibility of strong winds and storms during this period. The Meteorological Department states that this could be the last rainfall of the monsoon before it recedes. However, this cannot be confirmed definitively as the seasonal patterns have been changing frequently this year.

What will the weather be like in Delhi-NCR?

Scientists at the India Meteorological Department (IMD) say that people in Delhi-NCR are currently troubled by humidity and heat. A significant increase in maximum and minimum temperatures has been observed here. However, the weather has changed its course again. Due to this, the weather in Delhi-NCR will remain erratic until October 7. During this period, there is a possibility of heavy rain accompanied by storms. A yellow alert has been issued by the Meteorological Department for this. As for October 4, the skies in Delhi-NCR may be cloudy, but the possibility of rain is negligible.

Heavy Rain Warning Again in Rajasthan

Regarding Rajasthan, the Meteorological Department has warned of continued rain until October 6. The department states that due to a new Western Disturbance, a heavy rain and storm alert has been issued for Bikaner and Jodhpur divisions of Rajasthan on October 5 and 6. According to senior meteorologist Dr. Atul Singh, a new Western Disturbance is becoming active across North India from October 4. This makes heavy rainfall highly probable in northern states, including Rajasthan.

Deep Depression Formed Over Bay of Bengal

Meteorologists say that under the current weather system, a deep depression has formed over the Bay of Bengal. Due to this, heavy to very heavy rainfall is expected in many districts of West Bengal until the morning of October 6. According to IMD, districts like North 24 Parganas, Bankura, Hooghly, Purba and Paschim Bardhaman in West Bengal, and Purulia in South Bengal, may experience rain. A warning has been issued for West Bengal in this regard. Additionally, heavy snowfall is expected in Jammu and Kashmir.
