On the agriculture front, although
slight presence of hailstorms was noticed in several parts of the district,
however no major damage to wheat has been reported from anywhere. Farmers
however now wish that they had enough rain, that had been useful so far but any
more can be damaging to standing wheat crop. PAU has warned farmers about escalation of Yellow rust on wheat following rains.
The IMD website and several
forecasting websites indicate that from Sunday afternoon the weather shall
start clearing up. IMD reports that there can be about 9mm rainfall on the last
day in Sirsa, while other sites claim clearing up of skies.
