The India Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert for Punjab covering October 7 to 9, warning of rain, gusty winds and a fall in temperature.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) released a yellow alert for the state of Punjab starting on October 7, extending through October 9. The alert covers the entire region and signals a change in weather conditions after a period of sustained heat.
During the three‑day period, the IMD expects rainfall across the state accompanied by strong winds that could affect daily activities. The cooler air that follows the showers is likely to bring relief to residents who have been experiencing high temperatures.
Authorities have advised people to secure loose objects, avoid unnecessary travel during periods of heavy rain, and stay updated with local forecasts. The alert will be reviewed each day, and any escalation to a higher warning level will be communicated promptly.
