School Holiday Tomorrow, August 10, 2026: Several parts of India are likely to receive heavy to very heavy rainfall on Monday, August 10, according to the latest India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecast. Students and parents in affected areas should monitor announcements from district administrations and schools for any closure orders.

The IMD has forecast very heavy rainfall at isolated places in East Rajasthan and West Madhya Pradesh on August 10. Heavy rainfall is also likely over parts of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand.

School holiday tomorrow: Will schools be closed on August 10?

An IMD rainfall warning does not automatically mean that schools across an entire state will be closed. Decisions on weather-related closures are generally taken by district administrations, education departments or individual schools after assessing local conditions.

Students and parents should therefore check official district notices, school websites, WhatsApp groups and other authorised communication channels before leaving for school.

Telangana school holiday tomorrow: Schools closed for Bonalu

Schools in Telangana will remain closed on Monday, August 10, as the state observes Bonalu. The festival is listed as a general holiday in the Telangana government's 2026 holiday calendar.

The closure is related to the festival and not the rainfall alert. Students should still follow any separate instructions issued by their schools.

Rajasthan schools holiday update

The IMD has issued a very heavy rainfall warning for East Rajasthan on August 10 and 11. West Rajasthan has a thunderstorm and lightning warning for August 10, while heavy rain is expected there on August 11 and 12.

If weather conditions become severe in individual districts, local administrations may announce school closures. Parents should wait for an official district-level announcement before treating August 10 as a holiday.

Chhattisgarh school holiday update

Chhattisgarh remains under a significant rainfall alert, with heavy rain, thunderstorms and lightning forecast for August 10. The state has also experienced a prolonged spell of rainfall, with additional heavy-rain warnings for the coming days.

Any decision to close schools will depend on local weather conditions and orders issued by the respective district administrations.

Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand school holiday update

The Himalayan region is expected to receive substantial rainfall. The IMD has forecast widespread rain over Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh and adjoining areas from August 10 to 13. Isolated heavy rainfall is likely over Jammu and Kashmir from August 10 to 12, while Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand are also under rainfall warnings.

The IMD has also identified several Uttarakhand districts, including Dehradun, Haridwar, Nainital, Pauri Garhwal, Tehri Garhwal and Uttarkashi, as having a low to moderate flash-flood risk in the 24-hour outlook ending August 10.

Uttar Pradesh school holiday update

The IMD has forecast widespread rainfall over East Uttar Pradesh on August 10, along with isolated heavy rainfall over West Uttar Pradesh. East Uttar Pradesh is under a heavy-rain warning for August 9 and 10.

However, the weather forecast itself does not constitute a school closure order. Students should check with their district administration and schools for any official announcement.

Delhi-NCR school holiday update

Delhi and Haryana are expected to experience rainfall activity, although the latest IMD bulletin does not indicate a heavy-rain warning specifically for Delhi and Haryana on August 10. The heavy-rain warning for Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi applies to August 9.

Students in Delhi-NCR should therefore not assume that schools will be closed on August 10 unless a separate official order is issued.

Jharkhand and Odisha rain alert

Jharkhand is likely to receive heavy rainfall on August 10, while Odisha is also expected to experience rainfall during this period. The IMD has forecast isolated heavy rain over Jharkhand during August 9 and 10, and over Odisha on August 9 and again from August 12 to 15.

District administrations may announce school closures if weather conditions raise safety concerns for students.
