Rainfall activity over the Indore-Ujjain division is expected to intensify from July 8," she said, adding that the showers may weaken again by July 10. The synoptic situation includes a monsoon trough extending from northwest India to the Bay of Bengal, a low-pressure area over Gangetic West Bengal, and an active trough line from the northeast Arabian Sea crossing central Madhya Pradesh. While heavy rain alerts are in place for parts of eastern Madhya Pradesh, areas like Indore may continue to see moderate rain and cloudy skies in the coming days. The IMD forecasts similar weather on Monday, with a possibility of increased rainfall as the systems move westward across the region.

Rain slows response time of police's Dial 112 system in Nashik
Nashik: The Dial 112 system in Nashik experienced increased response times due to the rainfall that has been lashing the city since May. Response times rose from an average of 4.28 minutes in April to 5.28 minutes in May and 5.29 minutes in June. Traffic-related calls to the 112 system averaged over 160 in May and June, up from an average of 100 calls between Jan and April. Officials reported receiving more than 30,000 calls on Dial 112 from Jan to June. The Dial 112 service of the Maharashtra Police operates a fleet of 80 two-wheelers and four-wheelers in Nashik city. Each vehicle is equipped with a mobile data terminal (MDT) and GPS, allowing the police control room to monitor the response time for every call. Senior officers said their objective is to continually reduce response times. Compared to the response times from Jan to April, which ranged between 4.18 minutes and 4.29 minutes, there was an increase of approximately one minute in May and June. Nashik police commissioner Sandeep Karnik said, "We are continuously making efforts to improve the response time. No time is wasted by police teams once a caller connects with 112. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is it legal?

" Showers typically lead to traffic congestion as commuters opt for cars over their regular bikes during inclement weather. Waterlogging causes motorists to navigate using dry patches to avoid potholes, reducing vehicular speed. This slowdown has consequently affected the response times of the 112 system. Between Jan 1 and June 30 this year, the Nashik city police attended to 31,677 calls. The majority of these (5,792) were related to assaults, while 757 were traffic complaints. Of the traffic complaints, 337, representing over 44%, occurred in May and June.

Jayakwadi 55% full with steady inflows from Nashik
Nashik/Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: A total of 16TMC of water was released from 13 major and medium dams in Nashik district towards the Jayakwadi dam catchment area over a fortnight. Thanks to the heavy inflows from the upstream areas, the Marathwada dam's water storage is currently 55%. This 16TMC volume is three times the capacity of Nashik's Gangapur dam and surpasses the annual requirement of the Nashik Municipal Corporation also by three times. Additionally, 16TMC can fulfil the water needs of a city like Pune for nearly 10 months. Officials from the Nashik water resources department (WRD) said this release represents the largest volume of water discharged downstream in such a short period, especially during the early monsoon season. "This year, we have been getting rain since May 7, and June witnessed above 100% of normal rainfall. As water levels in dams increased, the WRD initiated discharge from June 23. Since then, 16TMC of water has crossed the Nandurmadhmeshwar weir — the last checkpoint on the Godavari river in Nashik district — after which the water flows into the Jayakwadi catchment area. This season has seen a total discharge of 20.8 TMC downstream since June 1," the officials added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Secure your family's future! ICICI Pru Life Insurance Plan Get Quote Undo The cumulative water stock in 26 medium and major dams in Nashik reached 63% of the 70.6TMC capacity this year, compared to 11% during the same period last year. Until Monday morning, dams in Ahilyanagar district discharged minimally (0.7TMC collectively) due to comparatively lower rainfall in their catchment areas. However, water from the Nilwande dam was released into the Godavari river. Rainfall in Nashik eased on Monday after the city received 51mm of rain in the 24 hours up to 8.30am, followed by intermittent showers. Water discharge from the Gangapur dam remained steady at 6,336 cusec over the past 24 hours. At Holkar Bridge in the city, water discharge reached 9,810 cusec, with the river level reaching Dutondya Maruti's waist. Vendors had already removed their kiosks and other structures from the riverbanks, relocating them to safer areas. The live storage in the Jayakwadi major irrigation project in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar district reached nearly 55% by Monday evening. The Nathsagar reservoir received heavy inflows at 42,200 cusec, and this is expected to further increase the water stock. This reservoir showed only 4% live storage during the corresponding period last year, according to official data. Since June 1, Jayakwadi has received approximately 19TMC of water from upstream dams in Ahilyanagar and Nashik districts. The dam, with a live storage capacity of 77TMC, received over 2TMC of water from upstream areas in the past 24 hours ending Monday morning. Hailed as the lifeline for Marathwada, Jayakwadi has received only 121mm of rainfall in its catchment areas since June 1. The increase in storage is attributed to heavy inflows from upstream areas. Over half of the Jayakwadi's storage will meet various water needs in Marathwada, including drinking, industrial, and irrigation requirements, irrigation department authorities said. A total of 11 major irrigation projects in Marathwada, including Jayakwadi, held 46% live storage compared to 13% during the corresponding period last year, according to official data.

Record-Breaking Temperatures In June Around The World
From Nigeria to Japan, Pakistan to Spain, the month of June was the hottest ever recorded in 12 countries and was exceptionally warm in 26 other countries, according to AFP analysis of data from the European monitor Copernicus. Some 790 million people around Europe, Asia and Africa experienced their hottest June to date. For the residents of 26 other states, including Britain, China, France, Democratic Republic of Congo and Ethiopia, the month of June was the second hottest on record. Heatwaves are more frequent and intense because of global warming, experts say. Here is a roundup of the exceptional heat recorded in June: Europe: 3 Degrees Celsius Above The Norm An early summer heatwave scorched western and southern Europe at the end of June, bringing sweltering heat to the Paris region in France and parts of Belgium and the Netherlands that are not used to such temperatures. Around 15 countries, including Switzerland, Italy, and every Balkan state, saw temperatures rise to three degrees Celsius above the June average between 1981 and 2010. Spain, Bosnia, and Montenegro had their hottest June to date. Asia-Pacific: Record Heats On Land And At Sea Japan also had its hottest June on record since data collection began in 1898, with record temperatures logged in 14 cities during a heatwave. The temperature of coastal waters was 1.2 Degrees Celsius higher than usual, tying with June 2024 for the highest since data collection began in 1982, the weather agency said on 1 July. Japan's summer last year was already the joint hottest on record, equalling the level seen in 2023, followed by the warmest autumn since records began 126 years ago. Japan's beloved cherry trees are blooming earlier due to the warmer climate, or sometimes not fully blossoming because autumns and winters are not cold enough to trigger flowering, experts say. South Korea and North Korea also experienced their warmest June since records began. Temperatures in both countries were 2 Degrees Celsius higher than the recorded average. In China, 102 weather stations logged the hottest-ever June day, with some measuring temperatures above 40 Degrees Celsius, according to state media. Central Asia: Hottest Spring On Record Temperatures soared to record highs for June in Pakistan, home to a population of 250 million, and in Tajikistan, which has 10 million people. The June records followed an exceptionally hot spring in Central Asia. Several countries including Pakistan and Tajikistan, Iran, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan experienced their warmest spring (April-June) ever recorded. Sub-Saharan Africa: Almost As Hot As 2024 In Nigeria, the world's sixth most populous country with 230 million people, temperatures rose to June 2024's record-breaking levels. Other parts of central and eastern Africa were also exceptionally hot. June was the second hottest month on record after 2024 in the Central African Republic, South Sudan, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo and Ethiopia. In South Sudan, temperatures passed the normal June average by 2.1 Degrees Celsius, an exceptional deviation from the norm in a region of the world where temperatures tend to be more stable. The impoverished nation plagued by insecurity is ill-equipped to counter increasing environmental disasters and had already struggled with a devastating heatwave in March, typically the hottest month of the year. Students collapsing from the heat in the capital Juba prompted the government to close schools and order citizens to remain at home. "Extreme weather and climate change impacts are hitting every single aspect of socio-economic development in Africa and exacerbating hunger, insecurity and displacement," warned the UN World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in May.
