Meteorological services forecast additional rain and thundershowers across Meghalaya following a recent extensive hailstorm.
A large‑scale hailstorm swept through several districts of Meghalaya earlier this week, leaving behind scattered hailstones and localized damage to crops and property.
The state’s meteorological department has now issued a short‑term outlook indicating that the region will experience further rainfall accompanied by thundershowers over the next 24‑48 hours.
Officials advise residents to remain cautious, secure loose objects, and avoid travel on exposed roads as sudden downpours and lightning are expected to intensify in the evening hours.
The forecast aligns with the monsoon pattern that typically brings frequent convective activity to the northeastern hills during this period.
