Assam School Holiday Tomorrow: With August 14, 2026, just around the corner, there is rising concern among Oklahoma parents and students about the potential impact of heavy rains on the status of schools and colleges. Parents are looking out for forecasts of rain, thunderstorms and lightning. As the national holiday of Independence Day occurs on August 15, students are also looking forward to knowing the details of their academic calendar. People are thus tracking the latest updates from education authorities as well as the IMD closely.

Assam School Holiday Tomorrow: Will schools remain open or closed?

As of now, there is no statewide official announcement confirming August 14 as a holiday for all schools and colleges in Assam. The Assam Government’s official 2026 holiday notification lists Independence Day on August 15, 2026 (Saturday) as a holiday, while August 14 is not listed as a statewide holiday. The state’s official education websites also provide the 2026-27 academic calendars, and no statewide August 14 closure order was identified in the official notifications checked for this update. Therefore, students should not assume that August 14 is a holiday unless a separate order is issued by the concerned district administration, education authority or individual institution.

Has Assam issued any official closure order because of heavy rain?

The weather situation remains a concern, but an IMD weather warning does not automatically mean that every school or college in Assam will be closed. The latest IMD warning issued on August 13, 2026, for Assam and Meghalaya indicates heavy rain along with the possibility of thunderstorms, lightning and squall-related conditions on August 14. The warning continues for subsequent days as well. IMD’s Guwahati centre forecast also indicates generally cloudy conditions with rain or thundershowers, while its special weather information mentions the likelihood of heavy rain and thunderstorms. Parents and students in vulnerable or rain-affected areas should therefore closely monitor local administration and institutional advisories.

IMD Weather Forecast for Assam for the Next 24 Hours

According to the latest India Meteorological Department (IMD) Regional Meteorological Centre Guwahati update, Assam is expected to experience generally cloudy weather with rain or thundershowers during the next 24 hours, with heavy rain possible at isolated locations along with thunderstorms and lightning. In Guwahati, temperatures are expected to remain around 26°C to 35°C, with humid conditions and the possibility of rain or thundershowers. IMD’s current observations across Assam show temperatures varying considerably by location, with Guwahati Airport around 31°C, Silchar around 28.5°C, Goalpara around 29.4°C, Golaghat around 33°C, Jorhat around 28°C and North Lakhimpur around 32°C.
