The mood of the weather in India is going to change once again. The Meteorological Department has issued an alert of heavy rain from 25 to 28 March 2025 in many parts of the country. During this time, there is also a danger of storm and lightning along with strong winds. If you want to keep your family and home safe, then this news is very important for you. Weather experts say that this seasonal change is the result of western disturbance and moist winds coming from the Bay of Bengal. Let us know about this alert in detail and understand what precautions you should take.

This rain starting from March 25 can affect many states. According to the Meteorological Department, there is a possibility of snowfall along with heavy rains in the hilly areas of North India like Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Jammu and Kashmir. At the same time, torrential rains with strong winds have been predicted in the plains of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi-NCR and Uttar Pradesh. Heavy rain alert has also been issued in the coastal areas of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh in South India. During this time, the danger of lightning and storm is the biggest concern, as it can cause loss of life and property. Weather experts have appealed to the people to be alert during this time and take necessary steps.

This seasonal change is not an ordinary phenomenon. Experienced scientists of the India Meteorological Department (IMD) say that such heavy rains are not unusual at the end of March, but this time the intensity of storms and lightning may be higher than in the last few years. The reason for this is also believed to be global warming and climate change, which has affected the weather pattern. If you live in the city, be prepared to deal with the problem of waterlogging. At the same time, people living in villages and hilly areas have been advised to be cautious of disasters like landslides and floods.

The effect of this heavy rain will not be limited to the weather only. It can become a matter of concern for farmers, as there is a fear of damage to the ready crops. Especially wheat and rice crops, which are ready for harvesting at this time, can fall prey to rain and storm. On the other hand, this rain will bring relief news for reservoirs and rivers, as water shortage remains a big problem in many areas. But with this, the risk of floods will also increase, especially in low-lying areas. The Meteorological Department has advised the local administration to remain alert and be ready for relief work.

So how can you avoid this heavy rain and storm? First of all, avoid going out during this time. If necessary, use an umbrella or raincoat and stay away from open fields, where there is a high risk of lightning. Keep electrical appliances unplugged at home and do not make the mistake of taking shelter under trees. Take special care of children and the elderly, as they are more at risk in such situations. Keep checking updates on the Meteorological Department's website and social media, so that you keep getting the latest information. These small steps can ensure your safety.
