PTC Web Desk: A shift in weather patterns is expected to bring about significant changes in Punjab, Haryana, and Chandigarh starting Friday evening. Meteorological forecasts predict strong winds, thunderstorms and dust storms over the next three days, raising concerns for farmers and residents alike.
While the anticipated weather shift may offer some relief from the heatwave, it poses potential risks for agricultural activities. Strong winds accompanying the weather change have the potential to cause damage to crops, particularly those in vulnerable stages of growth.
Wind speeds ranging from 40 to 50 km per hour have been reported, indicating the intensity of the upcoming weather disturbances. Currently, Bathinda in Punjab stands out as the hottest region, with temperatures soaring up to 40 degrees Celsius.
AK Singh, chief meteorologist of the region, has provided insights into the weather forecast, attributing the anticipated changes to a western disturbance. As this weather system moves across the region, residents can expect a shift in atmospheric conditions, potentially leading to cooler temperatures but also bringing along the risk of adverse weather events.
Precautionary measures are advised for farmers to safeguard their crops against potential damage from strong winds and thunderstorms. Additionally, residents are encouraged to stay updated with weather forecasts and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety during the expected weather fluctuations.
