After torrential rains, Delhi had a pleasant morning

After two days of abundant rain, it was a nice Monday morning in the nation’s capital, with the lowest temperature settling at 25.1 degrees Celsius, two degrees below the season’s average.

95 percent relative humidity was noted around 8.30 am. The forecaster called for a mostly overcast sky with a chance of light rain. The highest temperature is probably going to be in the range of 32 degrees Celsius.

The amount of precipitation in Delhi up to 8:30 am on Monday was 107 mm. On Monday morning, commuters had to negotiate flooded roads and fight gridlock.

Due to waterlogging, the Pragati Maidan tunnel was closed on Sunday and will remain so on Monday. The Delhi Traffic Police advised commuters to plan their trips appropriately on Twitter. Arvind Kejriwal, the chief minister of Delhi, will convene a meeting later in the day to review the situation brought on by the heavy downpours and the increasing Yamuna river levels.
