IMD predicts rainfall in Delhi, Haryana and Rajasthan today

Delhi along with its neighbouring northern states of Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh have been dealing with the return of heatwave for the past few days.

Delhi and some regions in its adjoining states of Rajasthan and Haryana will receive rainfall today, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said on Thursday. The weather alert has been issued for isolated parts of the capital and the other two states.

Light intensity rainfall is expected over the northwest and western parts of Delhi in the next two hours. The same weather has been predicted over Siwani and Rohtak in Haryana, and Pilani, Alwar and Nagar in Rajasthan.

The forecast is a much-awaited respite for both Delhi and the northern states that have been combatting a return of heatwave for the past few days.

The rainfall alert comes even as the MeT department has issued a heatwave warning for the remaining hours of Thursday and Friday (June 10) in Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, south Uttar Pradesh, northwest Rajasthan, north Madhya Pradesh, interior Odisha and Jharkhand.
