This article gives updates about the changing weather in Bihar, including expected rainfall and temperature changes.
The weather in Bihar is set to change soon. A new low-pressure area is likely to form around September 25 in the Bay of Bengal, which might bring significant weather changes in the coming days. Recently, Patna has also experienced a shift in weather, with some relief from humidity due to recent rains, though waterlogging has been observed on the roads.

This upcoming weather system could directly impact Bihar, especially during the Durga Puja festival, with many districts likely to receive good rainfall. The effects of this system should start becoming noticeable after September 25.
Residents should brace for sudden temperature drops, as the maximum and minimum temperatures may fall by around 3 degrees Celsius in the next few days. This means that mornings and evenings might feel quite chilly, while daytime temperatures could also change. Northern and eastern districts are expected to receive more intense rainfall, while South Bihar and the Magadh region might see lighter showers.
The Meteorological Department has issued alerts for heavy rain in Jamui, Banka, Katihar, Kishanganj, Purnia, and Bhagalpur districts.

As this weather system develops, it will enhance the excitement during the Durga Puja celebrations. Citizens are advised to stay safe due to expected strong winds and lightning.
