The Indian Meteorological Department forecasts clear weather for Delhi, but heavy rainfall in several southern and northeastern states.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a weather outlook indicating that Delhi will experience clear skies with no significant rainfall in the coming days.
In contrast, the agency forecasts heavy showers across several southern states including Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Karnataka, and parts of the northeastern region such as Assam, Meghalaya and Nagaland.
The expected downpours are attributed to a low‑pressure system moving westward from the Bay of Bengal, with rain accumulation likely to exceed 50 mm in some pockets, prompting local authorities to issue advisories.
Residents in the affected zones are advised to stay alert, avoid water‑logged roads and follow updates from local disaster‑management cells, while Delhi commuters can anticipate normal conditions.
