Summary

The India Meteorological Department has issued rainfall warnings across multiple Indian states from September 25-29, 2026. Uttarakhand, particularly Uttarkashi district, faces extremely heavy rainfall forecasts for September 27-28, with risks of landslides, road closures, and rising water levels. The Uttarkashi administration has placed the district on high alert, deploying rescue teams, stationing medical staff and ambulances, and advising against non-essential travel and riverbank proximity. Heavy to very heavy rainfall warnings extend to East Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Himachal Pradesh, and other states. Delhi-NCR is forecast to experience light to moderate rain with thunderstorms and strong winds over the weekend and into early the following week. The weather system, originating from a depression over northeast Madhya Pradesh and the Bay of Bengal, is expected to gradually weaken from September 28 onward. Authorities across affected regions have advised caution, travel restrictions, and regular weather monitoring.
