Torrential rains and flash floods washed away homes and roads in north India, leaving at least feared 60 people dead and thousands stranded, as the annual monsoon hit the country earlier than normal, officials said. Authorities called in military helicopters to try to rescue residents and pilgrims cut off by rising rivers and landslides triggered by more than three days of rain in the Himalayan state of Uttarakhand, officials said. -----EDITORS NOTE---- RESTRICTED TO EDITORIAL USE - MANDATORY CREDIT "AFP PHOTO / INDIAN ARMY" - NO MARKETING NO ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS - DISTRIBUTED AS A SERVICE TO CLIENTS

Uttarakhand Weather Update: The state is gearing up for a shift in weather patterns starting from Wednesday and continuing for the next three days, as per the latest update from the Meteorological Department. The forecast suggests a possibility of light rain in most districts, with a particular emphasis on the hilly regions where a yellow alert for rain has been issued for Wednesday.

The Meteorological Center anticipates multiple episodes of rain accompanied by strong thunder

The Meteorological Center anticipates multiple episodes of rain accompanied by strong thunder and lightning in select hilly areas. However, the plains are expected to remain dry during this period. Bikram Singh, the Director of the Meteorological Center, stated that there’s a likelihood of rain across most parts of the state from September 6 to 8. This could potentially provide relief from the prevailing heat in the plains, although there are no indications of torrential downpours due to the slowing down of the monsoon.

In a recent instance, the capital city of Doon experienced scorching temperatures, with the mercury soaring to 35.3 degrees Celsius, causing discomfort among residents due to the intense sunlight. Despite this, the maximum temperature is expected to hover around 35 degrees Celsius on September 6.

It’s advisable for residents and authorities in hilly districts to stay vigilant in light of the yellow alert for rain and potential thunderstorms, while people in the plains can look forward to some respite from the heat in the coming days.
