Meteorological Department has issued a rain alert for South India, while Delhi-NCR is expected to enjoy clear skies. Air pollution concerns remain high following the Dusshera celebrations.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a rain alert for the southern states, warning of heavy showers that could affect travel and agriculture. The alert covers coastal Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and parts of Andhra Pradesh, with rainfall amounts expected to reach 50–70 mm in some districts.
In contrast, the Delhi-NCR region is forecasted to experience clear skies and mild temperatures, providing relief from the monsoon gloom that has plagued the north. Meteorologists advise residents to stay hydrated and avoid unnecessary outdoor activities.
Post-Dusshera celebrations, authorities have noted a spike in air pollution levels across the national capital. The increased particulate matter is attributed to fireworks and vehicular traffic, prompting the government to issue a warning and recommend protective masks for vulnerable populations.
