Morning showers across Delhi on Tuesday cooled the city and eased the heat, though waterlogging and traffic snarls were reported in several localities.
Delhi and its surrounding National Capital Region experienced intermittent rain from early Tuesday morning, with clouds moving across the city and delivering measurable precipitation in multiple neighborhoods.
The rain brought a noticeable drop in temperature, offering immediate respite to residents who had been coping with a prolonged heat spell.
While many commuters welcomed the cooler air, the downpour also caused water to accumulate in low‑lying streets, leading to localized flooding and traffic congestion in several parts of the city.
Authorities monitored the situation, urging motorists to exercise caution and avoid affected routes where possible.
