Several parts of Delhi-NCR received light rain on Tuesday morning, bringing relief from the hot and humid weather. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a Yellow Alert for Delhi and forecast heavy rain, thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds over the next two days. Isolated areas are likely to receive heavy showers as monsoon activity intensifies across the region.
What Is Delhi’s Weather Forecast Today?
According to the IMD, Delhi is expected to witness a generally cloudy sky along with one or two spells of light to moderate rainfall across most areas. Some places could experience heavy rain, thunderstorms and lightning, along with winds of 30-40 kmph, which may gust up to 50 kmph, especially from the morning until noon. Another spell of light rain is also expected later in the day.
IMD officials said the monsoon trough has become active again due to moisture coming from the Bay of Bengal. The weather department said this change is expected to increase rainfall over Delhi and nearby regions after nearly a week of reduced monsoon activity.
Will Temperatures Drop?
Continuous cloud cover and rainfall are expected to keep daytime temperatures below normal. Safdarjung, Delhi’s main weather station, recorded a maximum temperature of 31.6°C on Monday, which was nearly 7 degrees lower than Sunday’s temperature. However, humidity levels are expected to remain high.
