February 2025 – What Happened This Month

February 2025 was packed with everything from monsoon warnings to big wins on the cricket field. If you skimmed the headlines, you probably saw a mix of weather alerts, sports drama, entertainment gossip, market spikes and a few holiday notes.

Weather Alerts and Seasonal Shifts

The Indian Meteorological Department kept a close eye on the north and east this month. Delhi‑NCR spent several days under orange alerts as heavy showers rolled in, causing traffic snarls and short‑term flooding. Similar alerts hit parts of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Madhya Pradesh, where rain poured down with an 87% chance on August 30. In the east, Kolkata wrestled with water‑logging thanks to a Bay of Bengal depression that pumped out intense downpours.

These weather patterns reminded commuters to carry umbrellas, avoid low‑lying routes, and keep an eye on official IMD bulletins. The monsoon swing also pushed temperatures down slightly, offering a brief relief from the soaring heat index that had crept above 45 °C in Delhi earlier in the month.
