North India Statesman
[ad_1]
Today, two completely different and worrying faces of weather are being seen in India. While the states of South India are battling the threat of heavy rains and storms, big cities like Delhi and Patna are fighting an invisible enemy due to ‘very poor’ air quality. Somewhere there is a rosy cold, and somewhere there is a danger of flood.
Due to the system forming in the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, the Meteorological Department has sounded the alarm bell for South India. At the same time, with the arrival of cold in North India, the level of pollution has started becoming fatal.
Sky disaster over South India, ‘Red Alert’ issued
Today can be a very difficult day for Tamil Nadu and Karnataka.
- Red Alert: the weather department Tiruvallur district of Tamil Nadu ‘Red Alert’ has been issued, which means that there is a possibility of very heavy rain here, which can create flood-like conditions.
- Yellow and Orange Alert: Yellow and orange alerts have also been issued for many other parts of these two states. There is a possibility of heavy rain in Kerala and Lakshadweep also.
- Strict warning to fishermen: In view of the danger, fishermen have been clearly told to stay away from the sea for the next few days.
Delhi-Patna’s air ‘very bad’, breathing problems
There is no rain in North and Eastern India, but there is ‘poison’ mixed in the air.
- Delhi: Today there will be sunshine in the capital after light fog, but the real problem here is the air. The air quality (AQI) remains in the ‘very poor’ category, which is extremely dangerous for respiratory patients and children. People have been advised to wear masks and not go out unnecessarily.
- Patna: The condition of Patna, the capital of Bihar, is similar to that of Delhi. Here too the AQI is in the ‘very serious’ category. The weather will be clear, but the level of pollution remains worrying.
What is the condition of other big cities of the country?
- Mumbai: The sky will be cloudy and there may be light rain or showers in the afternoon.
- Ahmedabad: There will be strong sunlight and heat here today. The temperature can go up to 36 degrees.
- Bengaluru: The weather will remain very pleasant and slightly cold. It will be cloudy and there is a possibility of light rain.
- Kolkata: Here too it will be cloudy and there may be light rain, due to which the sultry heat will be felt.
- Shimla: You will feel coolness in Shimla, the queen of hills. There will be fog in the morning and evening and the minimum temperature may drop to 6 degrees. Be fully prepared with warm clothes.
