The state’s post‑monsoon spell of rain will persist, with a gale‑rain alert for 11 districts on Thursday and another weather system expected from October 24.
Rainfall has not ceased in Madhya Pradesh even after the official end of the monsoon season. Meteorological officials issued a combined gale and rain alert for eleven districts on Thursday, urging residents to stay prepared for strong winds and heavy showers.
The alert covers districts spread across the state, and temperatures have already shown a marked dip, with Amarkantak recording a night low of 15.8°C. Such a drop underscores the lingering influence of the monsoon’s moisture.
Forecasters warn that a new weather system is likely to move into the region from October 24, potentially bringing additional precipitation. Authorities recommend that people keep emergency kits ready, avoid low‑lying areas during heavy rain, and follow updates from the state disaster management department.
