Himachal Braces for More Downpour: Orange Alerts Issued
Heavy rainfall continues to lash Himachal Pradesh, prompting the meteorological department to issue orange alerts for several districts. Bilaspur, Una, and Hamirpur are under an orange alert today, August 3, 2025.
The alert extends to Sirmaur and Kangra tomorrow, August 4, 2025, as the state anticipates more intense showers.
Light to moderate rain, with isolated heavy spells, is predicted to persist until August 9, 2025. A slight dip in temperatures is also expected during this period.
This extended spell of rainfall raises concerns about potential landslides and flooding in already vulnerable areas. Authorities are on high alert and advising residents to take necessary precautions. The impact on the state’s apple harvest, a crucial part of its economy, also remains a key concern.
