Himachal Braces for More Downpour: Orange Alerts Sounded
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 warning extends to Sirmaur and Kangra tomorrow, August 4, 2025, as the state remains in the grip of inclement weather.
Light to moderate rainfall, with isolated heavy spells, is predicted to persist until August 9, 2025. A slight dip in temperatures is also anticipated.
This prolonged spell of rain raises concerns about potential landslides and flooding, particularly in already vulnerable areas. Authorities are urged to remain vigilant and take necessary precautionary measures to minimize damage and ensure public safety. The impact on the state’s apple harvest, a crucial economic driver, also remains a key concern.
