The resident’s reaction to this untimely weather condition
Residents have already begun to feel the impact of the weather. Low-lying areas like Koramangala, Indirapuram, and several other parts of the city are facing waterlogging and slow-moving traffic after a heavy rainfall on Tuesday, 21 October. It is advised that daily commuters plan their travel mindfully to avoid traffic and flood-prone areas.
Despite the heavy disruption, people welcomed the untimely showers with happy hearts and enjoyed the day with their families, as it came with a slight pause to their daily intense routine, and also provided a great relief from all the pollution.
On 22nd October, 2025, the city woke up to light showers and an overall pleasant weather. So far, it is soothing to the people as it has been quite humid and it acts as a relief to the people who are tired and exhausted from the hot weather.
IMD’s Advisory to the people
It has been advised to the residents to spend most of their time indoors during such weather. People must avoid taking shelter under trees and stay away from open water bodies, as these things tend to intensify during heavy rains and can cause destruction.
Temperature-wise, the weather would be pleasant and mild, as is the city’s nature. The temperature will range from 29-30 degrees during the day and 20-21 degrees during the night, with high humidity levels.
As the city figures out its condition, it is important to stay safe and cautious.
