On Thursday, parts of Delhi-NCR experienced heavy rain and intense thunderstorms, offering much-needed relief from the area’s recent extreme heat. The skies were enveloped by dark clouds, accompanied by strong winds and rainfall affecting multiple regions.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for the next two days, cautioning residents about the possibility of more rain, thunderstorms, and weather-related disruptions. Officials have urged people to stay informed with the latest weather forecasts and take appropriate precautions when adverse conditions arise.
In a concurrent development, the IMD announced that the southwest monsoon has officially commenced over Kerala, signaling the start of India’s annual four-month rainy season. The monsoon arrived within the predicted timeframe set by the weather department and is anticipated to gradually progress across other regions of the country over the upcoming weeks.
The recent rainfall in Delhi-NCR is expected to bring down temperatures and improve overall weather conditions following several days of intense summer heat. This change is likely to be welcomed by residents seeking respite from the scorching temperatures that have prevailed in recent times.
