Weather Update: Alert Issued For Multiple States Ahead Of Heavy Downpour | ABP News
In Delhi, heavy rainfall is forecasted to continue throughout the day, prompting the India Meteorological Department (IMD) to issue a yellow alert. After yesterday's intense downpour, several areas, particularly South Delhi, have been severely impacted by flooding. By late evening, roads near Saket Metro Station had become so submerged that they resembled swimming pools, making travel almost impossible. Commuters were seen struggling through waist-deep water, trying to find safe passage. The situation was especially challenging for two-wheeler riders, who had no choice but to push their immobilized vehicles through the flooded streets. The city’s infrastructure was overwhelmed by the excessive rainfall and poor drainage, leading to significant disruptions in daily life. Traffic congestion increased as vehicles faced difficulties navigating through the waterlogged roads. Public transportation services, including buses and autos, experienced delays, and pedestrians found it difficult to move due to the accumulating water. The IMD has issued a warning for continued rainfall in the coming hours, advising residents to exercise caution and avoid unnecessary travel. The ongoing rainfall raises concerns about further disruptions and potential damage throughout the city.
