The spell of continuous rain in Uttarakhand refuses to end. From the plains to the hills, loud thunder and scattered rainfall have disrupted daily life across the state. While the intermittent showers have brought some relief from the heat, they have also led to challenges like landslides, waterlogging, and traffic jams. However, Friday brought a brief break in the rough weather.
IMD Predicts Rain Again Today Across Uttarakhand
According to the latest Uttarakhand weather update from the Meteorological Department in Dehradun, moderate to light rainfall is expected across all districts today, Saturday (July 12). Some areas may experience intense lightning and heavy showers. The IMD has issued a yellow alert for districts like Dehradun, Rudraprayag, Chamoli, Nainital, and Bageshwar, warning of possible heavy rainfall in isolated areas.
Gusty Winds and Lightning Likely in Hilly Regions
Weather experts have forecast winds blowing at speeds of 30 to 40 kmph in mountainous regions. Lightning strikes are also a concern. People have been advised to avoid using mobile phones in open areas, stay away from trees, and take shelter in safe locations during the storm.
Cloudy Skies and Rain Expected in Dehradun
In the state capital Dehradun, cloudy skies and heavy rain are expected throughout the day. While Friday saw clear skies in parts of the city, conditions are likely to shift again on Saturday. The Uttarakhand weather forecast suggests one or two spells of intense rain during the day, which could lead to localised waterlogging. Authorities are already on alert, especially in landslide-prone areas and places near rivers. Residents are urged to avoid unnecessary travel and stay updated with the latest weather advisories.
Monsoon Gains Strength Again in Uttarakhand
The monsoon in Uttarakhand is becoming active once again. While this change in weather might bring much-needed water to natural sources, it also carries risks. Caution and adherence to safety guidelines issued by the administration are crucial. Rain may bring relief in some places, but it could also lead to trouble in others. Staying alert is the key to staying safe.
