Bihar floods: Satellite pictures show swollen rivers, breached boundaries
The monsoon has plunged parts of India into a familiar crisis: rising water levels inundating large parts of Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Assam and Bihar. Of these, Bihar is bearing some of the most severe flood conditions. So far, torrential rain has reportedly affected at least 17 lakh people in 10 districts of Bihar. advertisementHeavy rainfall in various districts, including Bhojpur, Patna, Bhagalpur, Vaishali, Lakhisarai, Saran, Munger, Khagaria, Supaul and Begusarai caused rivers and streams to Bhagalpur district of Bihar, six blocks — Kursela, Barari, Manihari, Amdabad, Mansahi, and Pranpur — are severely affected, with nearly five lakh people reportedly living with floodwaters at their doorsteps. The water level at Bhagalpur station reached 34.86 metres, matching the high flood level and well above the danger mark of 33.68 metres on August 13. Nearby stations like Kahalgaon and Ekchari are also in critical condition, according to Central Water Commission (CWC) data. India Today's OSINT team analysed recent flood data from the CWC alongside remote sensing imagery to assess the flood situation across India. The Ganga in Uttar Pradesh, the Ghagra in Bihar, the Ichamati in West Bengal, and the Brahmaputra in Assam are all flowing above danger levels. Ichamati River in West Bengal has breached danger marks in two analysis of Sentinel-2 satellite data has produced precise flood maps of Bihar, identifying affected locations along the Ganga and other rivers that have risen above danger levels across the state. Sentinel-2 imagery shows the Ganga near Bhagalpur overflowing into Akbarnagar, Tilakpur, and Belthu, inundating roughly 19 kilometres and breaching its embankments. Flood mapping of Bihar's Chandan region and Jharkhand's Ichagarh area reveals vast stretches of land submerged under water. In Jharkhand's Sahibganj district, around 20,000 people in five blocks are reportedly affected as the Ganga crosses the danger mark, flooding homes. Since June 17, the state has received 40% above-normal rainfall, as per IMD. The Teesta in Sikkim and West Bengal, the Yamuna in Uttar Pradesh, and Bihar's Chandan river are flowing at high levels, as per CWC data. The IMD has issued red alerts for Sikkim, Assam, and Meghalaya, and orange alerts for Bihar, Himachal Pradesh, and Arunachal Pradesh. - Ends

Severe weather and non-timely action in re-routing the aircraft clear of weather were the probable causes that led to IndiGo's Delhi-Srinagar flight incident where the aircraft's nose radome was damaged on May 21, according to the probe findings by aviation regulator DGCA. On May 21, IndiGo's A321 neo aircraft VT-IMD while operating flight 6E-2142 from Delhi to Srinagar encountered severe weather, including hail, during cruise. After landing in Srinagar, the aircraft radome was found damaged, Minister of State for Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol told the Rajya Sabha on Monday.

On May 23, two days after the incident, DGCA had said IndiGo flight crew initially attempted to return but as they were close to the thunderstorm cloud, they decided to penetrate the weather. Live Events "Subsequently, they encountered hailstorm and severe turbulence. Crew chose to continue at the same heading to exit the weather by the shortest route towards Srinagar," it had said in a statement. While in a thunderstorm cloud, the regulator had said warnings of Angle of Attack fault, Alternate Law protection lost, backup Speed scale unreliable were triggered. "Due to updraft and downdraft encountered by the aircraft the Autopilot tripped and aircraft speed had wide variations. As a result, Maximum Operating Speed/Maximum operating Mach (VMO/MMO) warnings and repeated stall warnings were triggered," it had said. On May 21, the flight crew had sought permission to enter Pakistan airspace to avoid turbulence but the request was rejected.

India sees normal monsoon rainfall; some states drenched, others parched
India has recorded normal rainfall so far this monsoon season, but the distribution is highly uneven across states, the latest state-wise compilation by the India Meteorological Department ( IMD ) shows. Between June 1 and August 10, the country recorded 539 mm of rain against a normal of 535.6 mm, about 1% above the long-period average.

Arunachal Pradesh , Assam, Meghalaya, Sikkim and Bihar have recorded seasonal shortfalls. Live Events Arunachal Pradesh gauged 652.1 mm against a normal of 1,081.0 mm (about 40 per cent below normal), Assam 603.8 mm (37 per cent below normal), Meghalaya 978.7 mm (45 per cent below normal), Sikkim 837.4 mm (20 per cent below normal) and Bihar 438.3 mm (25 per cent below). Five states or union territories are in the excess category -- Jharkhand (853.7 mm; 41 per cent above normal), Delhi (433.5 mm; 37 per cent above), Rajasthan (430.6 mm; 58 per cent above), Madhya Pradesh (745.3 mm; 30 per cent above) and Puducherry (258.2 mm; 32% above). Ladakh stands out in the large-excess column with 31.8 mm against a normal of 14.8 mm (about 115% above normal). Twenty-five states and union territories, spanning north, central, east and south India , recorded seasonal totals within ±19% of the long-period average. This group includes Uttar Pradesh (478.0 mm; 11 per cent above normal), Maharashtra (585.2 mm; about 9 per cent below normal but within the normal band) and Karnataka (587.8 mm; 10 per cent above normal). While the cumulative picture shows the country close to normal, the season has been marked by sharp spatial and temporal variability. Parts of the western Himalayas, especially Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, have seen cloudbursts, flash floods and widespread landslides in July and early August, disrupting roads and local life. The national capital region also faced episodes of heavy downpour and waterlogging in late July and early August. The IMD has noted the unevenness of rainfall so far and expects the second half of the monsoon (August-September) to be generally wetter, with above-normal rainfall likely over the country as a whole. However, some pockets, including parts of the northeast and adjoining eastern India, are expected to remain on the drier side. The IMD has also said that northeast India has experienced below-normal rainfall for several consecutive years and warned of continuing regional differences in rainfall activity. In May, the IMD predicted that India would receive 106 per cent of the long-period average rainfall of 87 cm during the June-September monsoon season. Rainfall ranging between 96 and 104 per cent of this 50-year average is considered "normal". The monsoon plays a critical role in India's agriculture sector, which supports the livelihood of around 42 per cent of the population and contributes 18.2% to the national GDP . It is also crucial for replenishing reservoirs used for drinking water and power generation.
