Overview

• IMD has placed parts of Saurashtra and Kutch under red and orange alerts, citing heavy rain and flash‑flood risk linked to a well‑marked low over the Gulf of Cambay.
• PMD forecasts intermittent rain, thunderstorms and gusty winds for Karachi and southeastern Sindh through October 2, advising local preparedness.
• The Gujarat low is expected to drift west‑northwest and reach the northeast Arabian Sea around October 1, where it could deepen into a depression or tropical cyclone, according to PMD.
• Mumbai’s orange alert has been withdrawn and replaced with a green alert as skies turn mostly sunny, with only light, isolated showers expected; light to moderate showers remain possible in parts of Maharashtra.
• Delhi‑NCR recorded rainfall on September 30, and the IMD projects further light showers, thunderstorms and gusty winds into early October.
