Heavy Rainfall Alert for Gujarat as Monsoon System Persists
IN · Published Sep 15, 2026
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has reported a low-pressure area over southeast Rajasthan and adjoining north Gujarat, which is driving significant rainfall activity in the region.
Isolated extremely heavy rainfall is expected over Saurashtra and Kutch, while other parts of Gujarat may experience very heavy showers.

Impact & Risks

The ongoing heavy rainfall poses risks of localised flooding, particularly in Saurashtra and Kutch, where extremely heavy rain is forecast. Urban areas in Gujarat, including low-lying regions, may experience waterlogging. The trough and cyclonic circulations could lead to moderate to heavy rainfall in parts of central, eastern, and peninsular India, potentially disrupting daily activities. Farmers in these regions may face challenges due to excess moisture affecting crops.
