Meteorological authorities warn that a low-pressure system could redirect intense rainfall from the north to southern districts, potentially impacting agriculture and water resources.
The Indian Meteorological Department has issued a warning that a low‑pressure system moving across the country may shift heavy rainfall to southern districts. The shift could bring prolonged showers to states such as Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka, affecting crop fields and irrigation. Experts advise farmers to monitor crop health and ensure adequate drainage to mitigate waterlogging. The IMD urges local authorities to prepare for possible flooding and to issue timely advisories.
