Delhi-NCR was hit by heavy rains and a thunderstorm on May 30, bringing a big relief from the intense heat that had gripped the region. The sudden downpour, accompanied by strong winds, caused waterlogging in several areas but also lowered the temperature significantly.
Weather Department Forecast
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted more rainfall in the coming days, with the monsoon expected to advance further. The maximum temperature is likely to remain below 35 degrees Celsius for the next few days.
Impact on Daily Life
The rains disrupted traffic in many parts of Delhi, with waterlogging reported in low-lying areas. However, residents welcomed the change as it provided much-needed relief from the heatwave conditions that had persisted for weeks.
Authorities have advised people to stay indoors during the thunderstorm and avoid unnecessary travel. The weather is expected to improve by the evening.
