Delhi woke up to a cloudy sky and a noticeable dip in temperature on September 25, days after the southwest monsoon made an early exit from the capital. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has now forecast rain, thunderstorms and strong winds across the National Capital Region over the next few days, even as the region moves into its post monsoon phase.
According to the IMD, the monsoon withdrew from Delhi on September 23, two days ahead of its normal withdrawal date of September 25. A fresh weather system is now expected to bring rain to Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad over the coming days, with the IMD also flagging minor traffic disruption and waterlogging risk in low lying areas.
