The Indian Meteorological Department has issued an alert for Punjab, warning of thunderstorms, scattered rain and gusty winds on Tuesday and Wednesday, while temperatures are expected to remain largely unchanged.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) released a weather alert for the state of Punjab, indicating that the next two days – Tuesday and Wednesday – will bring a shift from the current dry spell to unsettled conditions.
Meteorologists expect intermittent thunderstorms accompanied by scattered rain showers across the region, along with strong gusty winds. Despite the change in weather, the department forecasts that daytime temperatures will stay close to the present levels, showing little variation.
Authorities have advised residents to secure loose objects, avoid unnecessary travel during periods of heavy rain, and stay updated with local bulletins. Farmers are cautioned to protect crops that could be vulnerable to sudden downpours and wind damage.
The alert follows a period of dry weather that has persisted across Punjab, and officials will continue monitoring the situation for any further developments.
