Hyderabad: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast heavy rainfall across parts of Telangana from Tuesday, October 27, with isolated extremely heavy downpours expected on Wednesday, October 28, as a weather system develops over the Bay of Bengal.
According to the forecast issued by IMD Hyderabad on Sunday, rainfall activity is expected to intensify across the state during the week. Mulugu, Bhadradri Kothagudem and Khammam districts have been placed under a red alert for October 28, with isolated extremely heavy rainfall possible.
Red Alert for Three Telangana Districts
