The India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicts extreme rainfall over the coming days. Red alerts signify more than twenty centimeters of rain in a single day.

Coastal regions also face high risks of sea incursions and strong winds. The state government has activated disaster response teams to handle potential emergencies. Educational institutions must ensure that hostel residents are safe and have enough supplies. Local administrators are working hard to secure power lines and clear blocked drainage systems.
