Patna: The weather in Bihar is expected to change once again, prompting authorities to issue advisories, particularly for farmers. The Meteorological Department has warned of rain and thunderstorms in certain districts, urging residents, especially farmers, to exercise caution and avoid open areas.
A yellow alert has been issued for light rain in Bhagalpur, Banka, Jamui, Munger, and Khagaria on Thursday. Additionally, thunder and lightning are expected in Banka and Bhagalpur. However, the weather in the southern parts of the state, including Patna, will remain stable with cloud cover.
On Sunday, February 18, the Meteorological Department predicts light rain accompanied by thunder and lightning in Gaya, Nalanda, Sheikhpura, Nawada, Begusarai, and Lakhisarai. Most eastern districts are also likely to experience similar weather conditions.
In the next two days, the minimum temperature is expected to decrease by 1 to 3 degrees Celsius, while the maximum temperature will remain unchanged for the next three to four days. On February 22, light rainfall is anticipated in some areas of the south-central region, including Patna. The changing weather conditions are attributed to the formation of a cyclonic circulation over northeast Assam.
