Farmers across several regions of India should prepare for active weather conditions as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an IMD weather alert for September 19. Significant rainfall is expected to impact northwest, central, east, west, and southern India throughout the day.
IMD weather alert: Weather Forecast and Monsoon Update
In addition to widespread rainfall, the regional weather patterns may include thunderstorms, lightning, and strong, gusty winds. These conditions could affect agricultural field activities, and farmers are advised to monitor local updates closely.
The IMD also reported that the southwest monsoon is likely to begin its withdrawal process from parts of West Rajasthan around September 19. This marks a critical transition period for farmers in that region.
Safety Warnings for Coastal Areas
The IMD weather alert also includes a specific advisory for those operating near the coast. Due to rough sea conditions expected in parts of the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal, the IMD has issued a warning for fishermen. It is advised to avoid venturing into these waters during the active weather period.
