The IMD has highlighted several risks associated with the ongoing orange alert. Gusty winds of 50-70 km/h may cause tree branches to snap and create flying debris hazards. Lightning poses a threat to exposed areas, including rooftops and tall structures. Disruptions to municipal services, such as electricity and water supply, are possible. Roads may become slippery, leading to traffic congestion and hazardous driving conditions. Weak structures could sustain minor damage. Residents are advised to remain indoors during storms and avoid sheltering under trees or near water bodies.
