Cyclonic system to bring heavy rain to Bengaluru: Details here

India

Heads up, Bengaluru—moderate to heavy rain is on the way from October 8 to 12, thanks to a cyclonic system brewing over the Bay of Bengal and a trough stretching from coastal Andhra Pradesh to south interior Karnataka.
Weather agencies say to expect gusty winds and thunderstorms, so it's a good time to keep an umbrella handy.

Prepare for waterlogging, traffic jams, and urban flooding

With about 100mm of rain expected in just a few days, there's a real risk of waterlogging, traffic jams, and even urban flooding—especially since Bengaluru has seen some record downpours in recent years (like 157mm in a single day last October).
Officials are urging everyone to avoid flood-prone spots, stay tuned to weather updates, and take basic precautions to stay safe.
