Bihar Weather Update: Heavy Rainfall Continues, Red Alert Issued by Meteorological Department

Published on

Bihar has been experiencing continuous rainfall for the past three days, with no signs of it easing. The Meteorological Department has issued an alert regarding the weather conditions for the next two days, predicting heavy rain. On October 4, 2025, the department issued an Orange and Yellow alert across various districts of Bihar, anticipating severe weather conditions.

The weather forecast indicates that the state will witness intense rainfall, accompanied by strong winds and thunderstorms. The Department of Meteorology has highlighted the possibility of more heavy rain in the upcoming days. As a precaution, authorities are advising people to remain cautious.

Red Alert for Several Districts

On Saturday, the Meteorological Department of Bihar issued a Red Alert for several districts of the state. The Meteorological Center specifically warned about thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, and lightning in districts like Muzaffarpur, Vaishali, Saran, Darbhanga, Madhubani (Chhapra), and Bhojpur. The Red Alert signifies that these areas will likely experience extreme weather, and citizens should be on high alert. In addition to these areas, Patna and several other districts are also expected to face heavy rainfall in the coming days.

Orange and Yellow Alerts for Different Districts

Along with the Red Alert, the Meteorological Department has also issued Orange and Yellow Alerts for other parts of Bihar. An Orange Alert, which indicates the potential for significant weather disruptions, has been issued for Supaul, Muzaffarpur, and Saran districts. Meanwhile, a Yellow Alert, signaling moderate rainfall and potential weather disturbances, has been issued for Gopalganj, Siwan, Sitamarhi, Samastipur, Patna, Saharsa, Madhepura, Araria, and Purnia.

The department has also confirmed that these regions will continue to experience heavy rainfall, along with gusty winds. Meteorologists predict that Sunday will see similar weather conditions, with strong winds accompanying the ongoing rainfall.

Temperature Fluctuations in Bihar

Due to the persistent rainfall, there has been a noticeable drop in the maximum temperatures across most cities in Bihar. However, the minimum temperatures have slightly increased. The recent bout of rainfall is attributed to the active monsoon system, which has gained strength over the past two to three days. The deep depression in the Bay of Bengal is causing this intense weather pattern in Bihar, and the rain is expected to continue for the next couple of days.

Monsoon Activities and Weather Forecast for the Coming Days

Bihar has witnessed a resurgence of monsoon activity due to the current weather system in the Bay of Bengal. The Meteorological Department forecasts that the state will continue to experience heavy rain and strong winds for the next two to three days. The situation is likely to improve after October 7, when rainfall activities are expected to subside.

The ongoing weather disturbances are being closely monitored, and people living in flood-prone or low-lying areas are advised to stay vigilant. Authorities have also instructed local bodies to remain prepared for any emergencies caused by the heavy rainfall and thunderstorms.

In conclusion, Bihar is experiencing a period of intense weather with heavy rainfall, strong winds, and thunderstorms. The Meteorological Department’s Red, Orange, and Yellow alerts indicate the seriousness of the current weather conditions. Residents in the affected districts should follow the safety guidelines issued by local authorities. It is also recommended to stay updated on the weather forecasts for the next few days, as the situation may change.

As the monsoon activity continues to affect Bihar, the weather conditions will remain unpredictable. The Meteorological Department assures the public that it is actively monitoring the situation and will issue further warnings if needed. After October 7, the weather is expected to improve gradually, with a reduction in rainfall. However, the next few days will remain challenging for many parts of the state.

This updated weather forecast brings attention to the importance of staying prepared and cautious during such severe weather conditions, especially for those living in flood-prone areas.
