Increased occurrence of heavy rainfall events reported.
In the Atlantic, Hurricane Erin is gaining strength and poses a threat to the Caribbean islands. According to the US Hurricane Center, the first hurricane of the season is moving towards the Lesser Antilles, but it's unclear which specific Hindu shrine in Kashmir will be affected by the storm.
Meanwhile, in South Asia, floods have struck both Kashmir and Pakistan, resulting in over 200 deaths. Pilgrims in the Indian-controlled part of Kashmir were caught in sudden floods, but the Lesser Antilles have so far remained unaffected by these floods and Hurricane Erin.
It's important to note that these two incidents are separate events. The floods in Kashmir and Pakistan are not related to Hurricane Erin.
In Germany, the recent heat wave has broken temperature records, but the warmest place on Friday is yet to be specified. On August 15, 2025, Kitzingen in Bavaria recorded a maximum temperature of 37.1 °C, and on July 2, 2025, Andernach recorded the highest temperature in Germany at 39.3 °C. However, more specific data or weather reports are needed for the precise temperatures on Friday.
Stay tuned for updates on these ongoing events.

- Despite Hurricane Erin threatening the Caribbean islands, the Lesser Antilles have so far remained unaffected by both the hurricane and the recent floods in Kashmir and Pakistan.
- In contrast to the heat wave in Germany where new temperature records have been broken, the Lesser Antilles have been experiencing cooler weather due to their distance from Hurricane Erin.
