FollowAfter a week of relatively dry weather, Karnataka is bracing for rainfall again as the Meteorological Department issued a fresh alert. The state has been experiencing a gradual increase in cold weather, with Bengaluru witnessing cloudy skies and dewdrops providing relief from the lingering chill. However, the cool air has further lowered temperatures in the city, intensifying the winter feel in the Silicon City.
In late November and the first week of December, heavy rainfall was recorded in many parts of the state, including Bengaluru, due to the impact of Cyclone Fengal. The rain, which also affected northern Karnataka, caused significant damage to vegetable crops. The destruction led to a steep rise in vegetable prices across Bengaluru and other regions of the state.
