The weather pattern in Bihar is set to change once again. The Meteorological Department has issued an 'Orange Alert' for heavy rainfall in Kishanganj and Araria districts today, Wednesday. Both districts are expected to experience torrential rain over the next 24 hours, prompting advice for local administration and residents to remain vigilant. Waterlogging and disruption to movement may occur in low-lying areas.

However, there is good news for other districts of Bihar. According to the Meteorological Department's forecast, the rest of the state is expected to experience normal weather today. Some areas may see partial cloud cover, but the likelihood of heavy rain is low. Daytime temperatures will remain around normal, providing some relief from humidity.

In the capital Patna and several other districts, intermittent rains have been observed over the past few days, leading to a drop in maximum temperatures. This rainfall is proving beneficial for farmers, especially creating favorable conditions for paddy sowing and transplantation.

The Meteorological Department has also issued a forecast until July 22, stating that light to moderate rain may continue in the northern and eastern parts of the state for a few days. South Bihar is likely to remain relatively dry. Citizens are advised to keep an eye on local news and the Meteorological Department's website for weather updates, especially if they reside in or plan to travel to areas under an Orange Alert like Kishanganj and Araria.
