Delhi Wakes Up To More Rain IMD Predicts Light To Moderate Showers With Thunderstorm Today WATCH

<p>Delhi on Sunday woke up to more rain as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicted light to moderate rainfall for today. This comes after the first spell of heavy monsoon rain created a mess in residential and commercial areas of the national capital on Saturday causing inundated roads and overflowing drains with massive waterlogging and paralysed traffic for hours. The Safdarjung observatory, the city's primary weather station, recorded 126.1 mm of rainfall between 8.30 am and 5.30 pm on Saturday.</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WATCH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WATCH</a> | Delhi wakes up to rain lashing several parts of the city; visuals from Mayur Vihar Phase II area <a href="https://t.co/WVXuHMyR0E">pic.twitter.com/WVXuHMyR0E</a></p> &mdash; ANI (@ANI) <a href="https://twitter.com/ANI/status/1677839044552826884?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 9, 2023</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en"><a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WATCH?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WATCH</a> | Rain continues in the national capital; IMD predicts moderate to heavy showers today <a href="https://t.co/KfsYAQvn0Q">pic.twitter.com/KfsYAQvn0Q</a></p> &mdash; ANI (@ANI) <a href="https://twitter.com/ANI/status/1677860306381606914?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 9, 2023</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p>In its latest tweets, IMD stated that Thunderstorm with light to moderate intensity rain would occur over and adjoining areas of isolated places of Delhi (Narela, Alipur, Rohini, Badili, Pitampura, Pashchim Vihar, Punjabi Bagh, Kashmiri Gate, Seelampur, Rajauri Garden, Red fort, Rajeev Chowk, ITO, Jafarpur, Nazafgarh, Dwarka, India Gate, Akshardham, Palam, IGI Airport), NCR ( Gurugram, Faridabad, Manesar, Ballabhgarh) Kaithal, Narwana, Barwala, Sohana, Nuh (Haryana) Bhiwari (Rajasthan).</p> <p>[tw]https://twitter.com/Indiametdept/status/1677854054775398400[/tw]</p> <p>As per an IMD statement, the interaction between a Western Disturbance and the monsoonal winds currently undergoing is likely to continue during the next 24-36 hours and is likely to result in moderate rainfall at most places of Northwest India with Isolated Heavy to very heavy rainfall over Haryana-Chandigarh-Delhi, Punjab was predicted on July 8 and 9.</p> <p>"The intense rainfall spell over Northwest India would decrease from the 10th with isolated heavy rainfall over the above areas and heavy rainfall is unlikely over the region from 11th July onwards," the statement read.<br />[tw]https://twitter.com/Indiametdept/status/1677631106492006402[/tw]</p> <p>Delhi government officials told news agency PTI that the city received more than 100 mm rain in a single day, which is 15 per cent of the total rainfall it gets every monsoon.
