Bihar: IMD warns of rain, strong winds from 28 October
The Story in Brief
The weather in Bihar is set to change again from 28 October, with the Meteorological Centre predicting light to moderate rain across most parts of the state between 28 October and 1 November. Some places may experience heavy rain, thunder, lightning, and strong winds of 40 to 50 km/h. The weather department has advised farmers and the general public to remain cautious.
The weather system has developed due to a low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal, linked to a cyclonic circulation extending up to about 5.8 km above sea level. The system is expected to intensify into a deep depression on 25 October and likely become a cyclonic storm by the morning of 26 October, moving towards the coasts of north Andhra Pradesh and south Odisha.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The forecast brings back-to-back weather events for Bihar: the low-pressure system brewing in the Bay of Bengal is expected to draw moisture into the state, causing rain over five days. Farmers face disruption to harvesting or standing crops during the late kharif season, especially in areas that get heavy rain and strong winds. The IMD has not yet named the storm or specified a landfall zone beyond the general coastal direction, leaving the exact track and intensity open. The next update on the system's movement on 25 October will clarify which districts are most at risk.
