The weather office has issued a Yellow Warning (Be Aware) for several districts, advising residents to remain cautious as unstable atmospheric conditions are expected to persist.

Meteorologists said isolated thunderstorms accompanied by strong winds may occur in parts of the state, while heatwave-like conditions could continue in some interior regions due to rising daytime temperatures.

Authorities have urged people to take necessary precautions, especially during thunderstorm activity, and avoid sheltering under trees or weak structures during lightning events.

Officials added that the fluctuating weather pattern is typical of the pre-monsoon season, when rapid changes in temperature often trigger localized storms across eastern India.

The IMD is closely monitoring the situation and is expected to issue updated advisories depending on evolving weather conditions.
