A lot of rain in Delhi
On Friday morning, there was a lot of rain in the national capital, which resulted in waterlogging and some roadways being submerged. This occurs one day after the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasted high levels of precipitation and cloud cover over the following few days, which will help to control the temperature.
The monsoon is predicted to arrive in the nation’s capital in the next two to three days, providing relief from the summer heat, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Thursday.
In a statement, the IMD stated that during the next two to three days, Delhi is expected to have favorable conditions for the southwest monsoon’s approach.
