Bhopal, September 1 (Kiran News). The monsoon has once again become fully active in Madhya Pradesh. According to the latest forecast from the Meteorological Department, the monsoon trough is passing through the central part of the state, along with cyclonic activity in the upper atmosphere. Due to the combined effect of these systems, many areas in the state have started witnessing heavy rainfall, which is expected to continue for the next 72 hours.
Heavy Rain Warning from September 1 to 3
The INDIA Meteorological Department (IMD) has warned of extremely heavy rainfall in the western districts of Madhya Pradesh from September 1 to 3. The department has made it clear that there will be continuous, intermittent rain for the next three days, which may cause waterlogging in low-lying areas and disrupt life in rural regions.
According to weather expert Ajay Shukla, both the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea are providing moisture, resulting in persistent light to moderate rainfall across Madhya Pradesh, with the possibility of heavy rain in some places. On Monday, districts including Indore, Dhar, Jhabua, Alirajpur, Barwani, Khargone, Burhanpur, Khandwa, Bhopal, Raisen, Rajgarh, Sehore, Vidisha, Ashoknagar, Shivpuri, Datia, Guna, Gwalior, Harda, Narmadapuram, Betul, Morena, Sheopur, and Bhind are likely to see intense showers.
A yellow alert has been issued for 19 districts, including Jhabua, Alirajpur, Dhar, Barwani, Dewas, Khandwa, Seoni, and Balaghat. The alert means that weather conditions may have more impact than usual, so local authorities and the public should remain cautious.
