There is a three-day heavy rain alert in Delhi, and showers are expected in several states. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued an orange notice on June 30, Sunday, with the likelihood of moderate to heavy downpours.

This means that Delhi and its surrounding areas would likely see nonstop rainfall in the upcoming days. The alert is predicted to last till Tuesday.

According to the weather agency’s daily bulletin, Delhi’s highest and lowest temperatures for the next week are predicted to range from 37 to 25 degrees Celsius, respectively.

Rainstorms battered portions of the nation’s capital on Saturday, including downtown Delhi, Burari, and Rohini. Between 2:30 and 5:30 on Saturday, Safdarjung, the city’s main meteorological station, reported 8.9 mm of rain, while Lodhi Road recorded 12.6 mm.

As the Southwest Monsoon moves across the area, rain is predicted in a number of northern Indian states in addition to Delhi.

From June 30 to July 3, the IMD predicts sporadic, intense rainfall in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan.

According to the report, on Saturday the monsoon moved farther into the remaining portions of east Uttar Pradesh and certain regions of west Uttar Pradesh.

It further stated that during the next two to three days, the monsoon is expected to spread over additional regions of west Rajasthan, Haryana, Chandigarh, Punjab, and the remaining sections of west Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, and Jammu.

Conditions in central India are probably going to improve so that the Southwest Monsoon can continue to progress into the remaining areas of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, and a few more regions of Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh.

In the upcoming days, there is a good chance of isolated, heavy rainfall over Tamil Nadu, Kerala, southern Karnataka, and Konkan-Goa.

Over the next three days, areas of West Bengal, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, and Tripura are likely to have mild to moderate rainfall along with thunderstorms and lightning.
