The India Meteorological Department has forecast heavy rainfall for the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Uttarakhand and the interior regions of southern Karnataka on Thursday.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) released a weather bulletin indicating that heavy rainfall is expected across three distinct regions of the country tomorrow. The forecast covers the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the hilly terrain of Uttarakhand and the interior districts of southern Karnataka.
Meteorologists attribute the impending downpours to a low‑pressure system moving eastward over the Bay of Bengal, which is expected to intensify as it approaches the islands and later interact with monsoonal currents over the mainland. IMD officials warned that the rain could be persistent and intense, especially in the mountainous zones of Uttarakंड where landslide risk typically rises.
Authorities in the affected areas have been advised to activate disaster‑response protocols, keep drainage systems clear and alert the public about possible travel disruptions. Residents are urged to stay updated through official channels and exercise caution while moving outdoors.
The IMD will continue to monitor the system and issue further advisories if conditions change, with the next update scheduled for early morning tomorrow.
