Could GTA 6 include natural disasters or hurricanes (This trailer 2 hint suggests yes)

Time of India16-06-2025
GTA 6 is generating buzz with hints of extreme weather events. Trailer details, like a "Hurricane Roxy" sign and a waterspout news headline, suggest hurricanes could feature in the game. While full-scale random hurricanes are unlikely, Rockstar might use scripted storms for intense story missions or unique GTA Online events, creating unforgettable chaos.
GTA 6 is shaping up to be the most ambitious Rockstar game yet. With a map set in the Miami-inspired
Leonida
region, fans are wondering: could hurricanes or other natural disasters be part of the experience? While it may sound like a stretch, there's actually a lot of evidence to suggest Rockstar could be teasing big weather events, possibly even full-scale hurricanes.
Trailer Hints Point to Hurricanes

Rockstar doesn't place things in their trailers by accident. In
Trailer 2
, eagle-eyed fans spotted a wall sign referencing 'Hurricane Roxy' and a flood gauge in the background. These small visual details hint that natural disasters might be more than just aesthetic, possibly real, scripted events in the story.
Even more telling? Palm trees in some scenes are staked into the ground, something typically done to prepare for high winds.
It may be subtle, but when you add it all up, Rockstar seems to be dropping breadcrumbs that hurricanes could play a role in GTA 6.
Oh, and remember that cheeky news headline from Trailer 1?
'Leonida man sucked up in waterspout demands city buy him a new suit.'
That's Rockstar humor, sure, but also lowkey a tease. Waterspouts are like mini tornados over water, and that's not something you code into a game
for no reason
.
Rockstar's Been Prepping for This
This isn't the first time Rockstar's flirted with natural disasters. Back in the OG Vice City, the story literally starts with a hurricane keeping you locked on one island. They didn't have the tech to render it back then, but they definitely
thought about it

GTA 6's Storm System Might Be INSANE – Are HURRICANES Coming?!
Scripted Storms Over Random Chaos?
Rockstar probably won't let a Category 5 hurricane just roll in during a chill session of GTA Online. That would be… a
lot
. But imagine this instead:
You and Lucia are prepping a high-stakes heist. Timing is everything. A storm's rolling in. Streets are flooding, visibility drops, power's out—you ride jet skis through downtown Leonida because the roads are underwater. Insane? Yes. Epic? Also yes.
That kind of scripted chaos? 100% Rockstar's vibe.
And in GTA Online, a special hurricane event, like snow during Christmas in GTA V, would be awesome. Even smaller hurricanes or tropical storms that knock out power or change the landscape temporarily could shake up missions, give new looting opportunities, or mess with cops' AI.
Will hurricanes be part of the regular weather in GTA 6? Probably not. But will Rockstar use one for an unforgettable story mission or Online event? Bet on it. Because if there's one thing we know, it's this: Rockstar doesn't just build cities. They build experiences. And nothing screams next-gen mayhem like outrunning the cops during a hurricane.

Soyabean farmers heave sigh of relief as recent rain boosts cultivation in region

Indore: Recent rainfall in Indore region has brought much-needed relief to farmers, who have been anxiously awaiting showers to support the growth of kharif crops, particularly soyabean. After a prolonged dry spell raised concerns over possible infestations in the standing crops, the rain has been welcomed as a saviour for the beleaguered farmers. The soyabean crop in Madhya Pradesh, the leading soyabean-producing state in India, is currently in its critical development stage, being approximately 60-65 days old. Farmers had been worried about the dry conditions impacting their yield. Sharing his relief, a local farmer Dinesh Patidar said, "Rain has come at the right time. Many farmers have suffered losses due to the dry spell, but the recent rain has boosted soyabean crops." Most farmers in the state have sown varieties of soyabean that take around 90-95 days to mature. So, just about 30-35 days are left for harvest. Another farmer, Dilip Mukati from Indore said, "Soyabean crop is now out of danger due to recent rain. If rain would not have come then we would have lost our crop." Though downpour has boosted growth of soyabean crop, the overall area under soyabean cultivation this season is expected to decline due to a reported shift towards maize cultivation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo According to a survey released by the Soybean Processors Association of India, the acreage under soyabean in Madhya Pradesh is projected to drop more than 6 percent this season, decreasing to 48.6 lakh hectare from 52 lakh hectare last year. Nationwide, soyabean acreage is expected to drop by 2.63 percent to 115 lakh hectare, compared to 118 lakh hectare in the previous season. Several districts, including Ashoknagar, Guna, Harda, Betul, Khandwa and Khargone, have reported a decline in sowing areas compared to last year, raising further concern among agricultural authorities. Soyabean is a major kharif crop in Madhya Pradesh, with the state farm department data indicating plans for approximately 10 lakh hectare to be dedicated to soyabean cultivation this kharif season. Last season, 9.85 lakh hectare was recorded for soyabean cultivation in Indore division alone. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Ludhiana MC to hire private firm to maintain its all-weather swimming pool.

Ludhiana: The Ludhiana municipal corporation (MC), before starting its new indoor all-weather pool, is in the process of hiring a private firm to run the pool for the public. The MC is to propose a monthly fee for the same. This all-weather pool will be open throughout the year, whereas the normal MC pool closes in October. The Olympic-size (in terms of length and width) indoor swimming pool has been established near Rakh Bagh under the Smart City Mission at a cost of Rs 5.82 crore. The officials claimed it was not possible for them to handle the maintenance of the pool due to a shortage of staff, but the fee structure would be decided by them to avoid overcharging the public. The sources revealed that officials are planning to charge Rs 3,000 monthly from people, along with a Rs 1,000 fee as coaching charges if anybody wants to learn swimming. According to the officials, cutting-edge technology has been installed at the all-weather swimming pool. A filtration plant has been installed to keep the water clean, and modern machinery/plant has been installed to maintain water temperature during all weather conditions. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The advanced technology and design allow year-round swimming regardless of external weather conditions. The officials shared that the length of the pool is 25 metres and the width is 12.5 metres, similar to an Olympic-size swimming pool. The depth of the five-lane pool ranges from 4.5 feet to 6 feet. This all-weather pool will cater to a wider audience, offering an enhanced recreational space for people of all ages. Measures have also been taken to ensure the safety of swimmers. MC commissioner Aaditya Dachalwal said the all-weather pool was ready and the civic body would soon open registration for the residents. It is a modern facility, and steps were also being taken for its proper maintenance, he added. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
