The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather advisory forecasting light to moderate rainfall and thunderstorms across Tripura in the coming days. The change in weather is attributed to an upper-air cyclonic circulation located over Northeast Assam, extending up to 3.1 km above sea level.
While the majority of Tripura remained dry over the past 24 hours, isolated areas in North Tripura experienced very light rain. Weather experts warn that more widespread activity is expected soon.
Temperature Trends and Weather Outlook
Temperatures have climbed across the state, with Agartala recording a high of 37.0°C — above the seasonal average. Kailashahar saw the lowest temperature at 24.4°C. The IMD does not anticipate significant temperature changes immediately but suggests a marginal dip later in the week.
Weather Forecast: May 10–15
- Rain and Thunderstorms: Expected across several districts in Tripura.
- Gusty Winds (30–50 km/h): Likely in North Tripura, Unakoti, Dhalai, and Khowai on May 12 and 13.
- Heavy Rainfall Warning: Issued for West Tripura, Sepahijala, and Gomati districts during this period.
- Hot and Humid Conditions: Will persist throughout the state despite rainfall activity.
Public Advisory
The IMD has urged residents to stay alert for possible lightning strikes and strong winds, particularly in vulnerable areas. Locals are advised to follow weather updates closely and adhere to safety guidelines during thunderstorms.
