Sai Layout in Horamavu was one of the worst-affected areas, with streets submerged under 4-5 feet of water. The flooding caused major inconvenience to residents, and videos circulating online showed people wading through the water. In NC Colony on Tannery Road, water entered homes following the downpour.

Waterlogging led to massive traffic disruptions across the city. In areas like Panathur S Cross, Domlur flyover’s upper ramp, and Koramangala, several vehicles broke down in the flooded streets. Commuters were seen pushing their vehicles through knee-deep water as traffic slowed to a crawl.

Social media platforms were filled with images and videos of flooded streets. Several users criticised the government for failing to address the recurring issue of waterlogging.

“Just one normal rain and our Bengaluru turns into a swimming pool but our Karnataka government is more interested in tunnel roads, dismantling BBMP, and Tumkur Metro extensions instead of fixing these issues,” said one user.“Bengaluru's Manyata Tech Park turns into a lake after rain, exposing the Congress government's hollow promises on infrastructure. Is this the 'Brand Bengaluru' that Karnataka Congress bragged about?” said another.
In a reference to earlier misinformation on Pakistani social media, one user wrote, “Bengaluru Port is operational now.”

The IMD has issued a yellow alert across Karnataka till Thursday. “As per the current pattern of the cyclonic circulation, Karnataka, especially the coastal parts, will get heavy rainfall. Bengaluru is also expected to receive heavy rainfall for the next two days,” said IMD Bengaluru centre Director N Puviarasu.
