Bhopal's monsoon runs from July to September, and most of the year's rain falls in these months. The lakes fill and the city turns green — but a handful of low junctions and underpasses flood fast in a heavy downpour. Below is the live weather right now, a map of spots that commonly waterlog, and safety tips.

Staying safe in heavy rain
- Avoid flooded underpasses and culverts — it's hard to judge how deep the water is.
- Never drive or ride into moving water; even half a metre of flow can sweep a vehicle.
- Keep away from fallen wires and electric poles; standing water can carry a live current.
- Check the IMD forecast and warnings before heading out; postpone travel in very heavy rain.
- Keep key numbers handy — the municipal control room and emergency services (112).
