Monsoon rains have caused significant disruption. In Uttarakhand, the downpour has been particularly severe, with a village in Dharali being swept away. Himachal Pradesh is also facing heavy rainfall. Several plain areas are experiencing difficult conditions due to the rain. The national capital, Delhi, and its surrounding NCR region have received substantial rainfall in the last 24 hours. The weather across Delhi NCR is pleasant with light drizzles and showers, accompanied by cool winds. This weather pattern is expected to continue, with rain expected to persist until August 11th. The region is likely to experience thunderstorms and varying intensities of rainfall during this period.
Uttar Pradesh is bracing for the impact of heavy rainfall, with the weather department issuing warnings for several areas. A red alert has been issued for extremely heavy rainfall in Moradabad, Bijnor, Rampur, Bareilly, Pilibhit, Shahjahanpur, and surrounding areas.
