IMD Forecasts Widespread Rain and Flood Alerts Across Uttar Pradesh
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts widespread thundershowers and isolated heavy rains across Uttar Pradesh over the coming days. Recent rainfall caused waterlogging and traffic disruptions in Prayagraj, while Bareilly has set up flood posts and relief camps due to rising river levels. Authorities in Gonda and Kheri districts are monitoring embankments and river erosion. The IMD expects reduced monsoon activity until July 25, with increased rainfall likely from July 26, helping reduce the state's seasonal rainfall deficit.
