• Water logging / flooding in many parts of low-lying areas.
• Landslides/mud slide/land slip very likely.
• Heavy rainfall may damage the standing crops and vegetables in the maturity stage.
• Lightning may injure people and cattle at open place.
• Dispersion of soil from the field and hence seed displacement and poor germination of seeds.
Actions suggested
• Follow traffic advisories issued, if any.
• Avoid staying in vulnerable structure.
• Avoid going to the areas that face water logging problems/ river fronts.
• People in the vulnerable area are advised to move to safer places.
• Propping of the vegetable pandals recommended.
 • Take shelter during thunderstorm/lightning activities.
• Provide mulch at the base of the crop to prevent soil and root damage.
• Avoid working in the fields during thunderstorm/lightning period and ensure proper mechanism to avoid runoff in
