The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a yellow alert for Delhi and the surrounding National Capital Region as a powerful Western Disturbance approaches. This weather system is expected to impact Northwest India starting from the night of March 28, leading to a significant wet spell. Officials expect the most intense weather activity to occur over a 48-hour window, affecting millions of residents in the urban cluster.

Key weather changes expected in Delhi Noida and Gurugram

Meteorologists indicate that March 29 and 30 will be the primary days of concern for residents. The region will likely experience heavy rainfall and persistent thunderstorms throughout these two days.
