Delhi on yellow alert again as rain, thunderstorms likely to hit the city
Delhi was put under yellow alert yet again as the India Meteorological Department forecast steady rain and thunderstorms across the national capital for the second consecutive day on Tuesday. The minimum temperature was recorded at 27 degrees Celsius, about a degree higher than normal, while the maximum is likely to touch 34 degrees. A yellow alert, the IMD's second level of warning, urges residents to remain watchful as weather conditions could impact daily life. Humidity levels were already high at 70% this morning, adding to the discomfort. The weather agency had warned earlier that heavy rain and thunderstorms could persist for the next two weeks. Delhi, Mumbai, Dehradun, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand are all on alert for potential flooding, landslides, and severe thunderstorms through July 9. Live Events Traffic chaos as rain floods roads The rain began early Monday, quickly flooding key roads in the capital. The Mehrauli-Badarpur stretch turned into a long pool of water, stranding cars and slowing commuters to a crawl. 'Every time it rains, this road is submerged for kilometres,' a commuter told PTI. Another resident, Amit, shared, 'It only takes an hour of showers for everything to get clogged. My car broke down, and I couldn't move for over an hour.' The city's air quality, however, remained relatively acceptable, with the AQI at 85—categorised as 'satisfactory.' According to the Central Pollution Control Board, readings between 51 and 100 are considered safe, while higher numbers signal deteriorating air. Monsoon systems driving severe weather across India The IMD explained that the monsoon trough currently extends from northwest Rajasthan across Delhi to the Bay of Bengal, combining with an upper-air cyclonic circulation over Himachal Pradesh and Punjab. This convergence is intensifying rainfall not only in Delhi but across multiple states. Other regions are also struggling with extreme rain. In Gujarat, Ahmedabad saw widespread water accumulation that disrupted traffic over the weekend. Banaskantha district has been grappling with flooding in towns like Tharad. The IMD has issued red and orange alerts across several Gujarat districts, forecasting more intense downpours and squalls. Kachchh is also likely to experience heavy to very heavy rain through the coming week as monsoon systems continue to strengthen.

Forecast for hotter, humid days in TN for next few days
Chennai: The Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) has issued a weather advisory predicting a sharp rise in temperatures across Tamil Nadu and Puducherry over the coming days, driven by strong westerly winds prevailing in the lower tropospheric level. According to the RMC, dry weather conditions will dominate much of the state this week. 'Maximum temperatures are likely to rise by 2 to 4 degrees Celsius on July 8 and 9 in several districts of Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal,' the advisory stated. The increase is attributed to the influence of moderate to strong westerly winds blowing across the region at lower atmospheric levels. The temperature spike is expected to peak on July 9, with several regions likely to experience both high heat and increased humidity. The RMC has urged residents to take precautions against heat-related health issues, especially during peak daytime hours. On Monday, Madurai Airport registered the highest maximum temperature in the state at 39 degrees Celsius, while Karur Paramathi recorded the lowest temperature for the day. Chennai too is expected to see soaring mercury levels, with forecasts suggesting the temperature could breach the 38 degrees Celsius mark. 'Light to moderate rainfall is, however, expected in some parts of the city,' the RMC noted. Despite the prevailing heatwave-like conditions, the weather department has also forecast isolated spells of rainfall across the region. Light to moderate showers are expected in select areas of Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal until July 13. This is likely to bring some relief, especially in the hilly and forested regions. On Monday, Naduvattam in The Nilgiris district recorded the highest rainfall at 6 cm, followed by Avalanche (also in The Nilgiris) with 5 cm, and Chinnakallar in Coimbatore district with 4 cm. The RMC continues to monitor the situation and has advised residents to stay updated through official channels, stay hydrated, avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight, and take precautions during sudden rain spells.
