Maharashtra Rain Update: IMD Issues Yellow Alert for Vidarbha for Next 2 Days; High Tide Alert in Mumbai

Nagpur city of Maharashtra experienced brief rainfall showers towards Tuesday evening, even as the monsoon is believed to be intensifying after a prolonged lull throughout the first week of September 2025. The Regional Meteorological Centre of India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for Nagpur and many parts of Vidarbha between Thursday (September 11) and Saturday (September 13).

According to the weather department, thunderstorms accompanied by lightning, gusty winds and rain can be expected during the period. A low depression stretching from Pakistan to Gujarat is expected to dissipate over the next 24 hours while moving towards the south-westerly direction, making an impact on Gujarat. At the same time, monsoon clouds are moving throughthe  north Indian states.

In addition, a cyclonic circulation has formed between Odisha and Andhra Pradesh with the possibility of another cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal region. These conditions have led to moisture entering the at-mosphere resulting in rains over Nagpur and many other parts of Vidarbha between September 11 and 13. The weather took a turn in the city on Tuesday when a clear morning gradually turned cloudy and resulted in brief showers towards the evening.

The day temperature in the city was recorded at 34.0 degrees Celsius which was the highest in Vidarbha region. It was closely followed by Akola, Brahmapuri and Wardha which recorded 33.8 degrees Celsius. The city also registered 2 mm of rainfall in the evening.
