The Kerala State Disaster Management Authority has placed a yellow rain alert over seven districts, while schools and colleges will decide on holidays after further review.
The Kerala State Disaster Management Authority (KSDMA) has issued a yellow rain alert covering seven districts across the state as monsoon clouds intensify. A yellow alert signals the possibility of moderate to heavy rainfall that could affect daily activities and infrastructure.
Authorities have warned that while the alert is in force, the decision to declare holidays for schools and colleges will be taken only after a detailed review of weather forecasts and ground conditions. Educational institutions have been asked to monitor updates closely and communicate any changes to students and parents promptly.
Residents in the affected districts are advised to stay informed through official channels, avoid unnecessary travel during heavy downpours, and take precautionary measures to protect property and safety.
The KSDMA will continue to monitor the situation and may upgrade the alert level if conditions worsen, urging the public to cooperate with local officials and emergency services.
