Hey there, Pune folks! Looks like we’ve got some interesting weather updates coming our way. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has extended its heavy rainfall warning for the ghat areas of Pune district until September 8. So, if you’re planning a trip to the hills, you might want to pack an umbrella!
But don’t worry, Pune city itself is expected to receive only light showers, which shouldn’t put a damper on your Ganesh festival celebrations. IMD scientist S.D. Sanap explained that a low-pressure system over the Bay of Bengal is to blame for the wet weather. This system might develop into a depression by September 9, bringing heavy rainfall to areas like Gangetic West Bengal and northern Odisha.
Now, here’s the interesting part – when those moisture-laden winds hit the Western Ghats, they bring on the rain. But by the time they reach Pune city, they’ve pretty much dried up. So, while places like Lonavala and Shirgaon are getting soaked, we’ll just be getting a light drizzle.
The IMD has forecasted light rain for Pune city over the next few days, so no need to cancel your festival plans. Just keep an eye on the weather updates in case things change. And if you’re in the ghat regions, stay safe and avoid unnecessary travel during heavy rainfall periods.
So, there you have it, Pune peeps. Stay dry, stay safe, and enjoy the festive season!
