Karnataka prepares for continued rainfall
Karnataka's coast and Western Ghats are on high alert as the IMD warns of heavy rain and strong winds in 14 districts. Bengaluru and nearby areas have a yellow warning till June 18, with lighter showers expected. The wild weather is being driven by a cyclonic system moving across the region.
TL;DR
Flooding in coastal districts
Flooding has already hit coastal places like Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, and Kodagu—roads are underwater and daily life is disrupted. Winds up to 50km/h make things trickier. On a brighter note, the early monsoon has actually helped farmers get ahead with sowing crops—over 171% above normal for this time of year.
