Heavy rain expected in Bengaluru this week: IMD
Bengaluru is set for more light to moderate rain and thundershowers in the coming days, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD).
Heavy showers with gusty winds are also likely in Shivamogga and nearby areas.
With ongoing Metro work and road closures, the city's already tough traffic situation could get worse.
Traffic police issue advisory for commuters
Rain is expected across Bengaluru Urban and Rural, plus districts like Chamarajanagara and Mysuru.
Usual October weather here is pretty pleasant, but this week's downpour means waterlogged roads and fallen trees—think closed routes like Ali Asker Road and Panathur Main Road.
Maintenance on Outer Ring Road near Marathahalli isn't helping either.
Police are asking everyone to leave early, use alternate routes, and keep an eye on updates until things clear up.
