Heavy rain continues to blanket the Delhi-NCR region while temperatures remain below the seasonal norm, according to the India Meteorological Department.
Heavy rain has been falling across the Delhi-NCR region for several consecutive days, affecting both the capital and surrounding districts. The persistent downpours have led to waterlogging in low‑lying areas and have disrupted normal traffic flow.
Meteorological data show that daytime temperatures are a few degrees lower than the typical range for this time of year, keeping the climate noticeably cooler than usual. Residents have reported feeling a chill, especially during early mornings and evenings.
The Delhi government and the National Disaster Management Authority have issued advisories urging people to avoid non‑essential travel, secure loose objects, and stay alert for sudden water‑related hazards. Emergency services remain on standby to respond to any incidents.
Forecasters expect the rain to continue into the next 24‑48 hours, with temperatures likely to stay below normal until the system moves away. Authorities are monitoring the situation closely and will update the public as needed.
