An overnight shower across Delhi‑NCR has lowered temperatures, giving the region a winter feel. Meteorological services predict additional rain in the coming days.
The overnight rain that swept across Delhi‑NCR this morning has dropped temperatures, creating a winter‑like atmosphere in the capital region. Meteorological data shows a noticeable dip in the daytime highs compared to the previous days. The rain, which began in the early hours, covered most of the metropolitan area, leaving streets slick and skies overcast.
Weather experts have noted that the sudden drop in temperature is a welcome relief for residents who have been dealing with high heat indices. However, the cooler weather is expected to be short‑lived as the national weather service has issued a forecast for continued showers over the next 48 hours.
The forecast calls for scattered rain in the afternoons and early evenings, with a chance of brief thunderstorms in some pockets of the region. Local authorities have advised commuters to be cautious on roads, especially in areas prone to waterlogging.
While the rain has temporarily eased the heat, the city’s drainage system is under strain, and residents are urged to stay alert to any advisories from municipal bodies. The weather pattern is expected to persist until the end of the week, after which temperatures should gradually rise again.
