New Delhi [India], July 22 (ANI): The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a warning of light to moderate rainfall accompanied by light thunderstorms and lightning on Monday in isolated areas of Delhi-NCR, Yamunanagar, and Kurukshetra.
Areas of Delhi-NCR expected to receive rainfall today include Seemapuri, Hindon AF Station, Ghaziabad, Indirapuram, Chhapraula, Noida, Dadri, Greater Noida, Gurugram, and Manesar.
Additionally, rain is expected in areas of Haryana, including Karnal, Panipat, Hissar, Hansi, Siwani, Sohana, Rewari, Bawal, and Nuh.
On July 18, rain lashed parts of Delhi, bringing respite from the humid weather.
In June, the city received the highest rainfall in 88 years. According to the IMD, Delhi experienced 228 mm of rainfall from 8:30 a.m. on June 27 to 8:30 a.m. on June 28. A total of 235.5 mm of rain was recorded, marking the maximum rainfall in 24 hours in June since 1936.
However, due to the rain, water levels in the Yamuna river have risen, prompting authorities to issue an alert to residents of Noida villages situated along the riverbanks.
