The India Meteorological Department has issued a weather alert for the Tricity region. A western disturbance is approaching from the west. This system will disrupt the current sunny conditions in Chandigarh, Mohali, and Panchkula.
Rainfall Predictions for the Region
Meteorologists expect light to moderate rainfall starting January 21. The showers may continue for a couple of days. Residents should prepare for wet weather and possible disruptions.

Impact on Daily Life and Precautions
Local authorities advise caution during the rainy period. Commuters should drive carefully on slippery roads. People must avoid waterlogged areas to prevent accidents.
The western disturbance is a common weather phenomenon in North India during winter. It often brings precipitation and cloud cover. This event marks a shift from the dry spell the Tricity has experienced recently.
Farmers in nearby rural areas might benefit from the moisture. The rain could help winter crops. However, urban residents may face minor inconveniences.
