The government launched 'Abhawa', a new app for real-time weather updates.

Designed to enhance public access to official weather information, the app seeks to mitigate risks associated with extreme weather events. By providing timely and accurate forecasts, it aims to empower citizens to take proactive measures against potential disasters.

Users can now get instant alerts about severe weather conditions directly on their smartphones.

The long-term vulnerability to climate extremes remains high; however, tools like 'Abhawa' could significantly reduce the impact of future events by improving response times and preparedness.

What is the long-term climate outlook for this region?

While the app offers a valuable tool in managing immediate risks, the underlying climate trends suggest increasing frequency and severity of extreme weather. Residents must continue to adapt and prepare for worsening conditions.

The outlook remains challenging despite new technological aids.
