Storm Warning Issued for Patna , Strong Winds and Rain Expected Across Bihar

Shivani Jaiswal , Patna - The weather office has issued a fresh alert for Patna and several parts of Bihar, warning residents of approaching thunderstorms, gusty winds, and rainfall over the next 24  

Wind speeds during the storm could reach between 60 and 70 km/h, raising the risk of tree falls, power outages, and temporary disruptions in road and rail traffic.

The alert highlights that districts in north and central Bihar are particularly vulnerable, with changing weather patterns linked to seasonal atmospheric instability. Light to moderate rainfall is expected, which may bring some relief from rising temperatures but could also lead to waterlogging in low-lying areas.

Authorities have advised residents to remain cautious, especially during peak storm hours. People are being urged to avoid open areas, secure loose objects, and stay indoors during lightning activity.

Disaster response teams and local administration units have been placed on standby to handle any emergency situations. Farmers have also been cautioned to take necessary steps to protect standing crops from possible damage.

This weather system is part of a broader pattern of pre-monsoon activity affecting eastern India, signaling an active transition period before the arrival of the southwest monsoon.
