Heavy rainfall in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) has caused significant waterlogging and traffic disruptions, prompting the India Meteorological Department (IMD) to issue an orange alert. The rain has led to severe traffic jams in areas such as Janpath Road, India Gate, and Rohtak Road, with waterlogged streets making commuting challenging. The maximum temperature dropped to 27.9°C, six degrees below normal, offering some relief from the heat but exacerbating road conditions. Additionally, damaged roads and potholes in areas like Gomti Nagar and Pataudi Road have heightened the risk of accidents and further slowed traffic. The IMD forecasts continued rain with gusty winds and thunderstorms, though conditions are expected to improve by September 15. Despite the chaos, the rainfall has improved Delhi's air quality, with the Air Quality Index recorded at a satisfactory level of 64.
