Heavy rainfall in Bengaluru
After a spell of dry weather, Bengaluru experienced resurgence of monsoon with heavy rainfall in several areas, especially in the East Zone and Yelahanka area on Monday.
The brief, yet heavy spell of rainfall led to waterlogging on major roads such as Kamaraj Road, as well as in low-lying areas of KR Puram and along the Kasturi Nagar down-ramp. However, the situation did not escalate and cause major traffic snarls.
According to the IMD's Bengaluru city observatory, 1.9 mm of rainfall was recorded between 8.30 am and 8.30 pm. Both the HAL airport observatory and the Bengaluru Urban automatic weather station logged 2 mm during the same period.

Twin rivers start receding, relief ops continues in Prayagraj
1 2 Prayagraj: District authorities and residents living in low-lying areas heaved a sigh of relief after water level of the twin rivers, Ganga and Yamuna, started receding on Tuesday. Officials of the flood control department said that while the water level of Ganga at Chhatnag was declining at a rapid pace, Ganga at Phaphamau and Yamuna at Naini showed a receding trend in the evening hours. Water level of Ganga and Yamuna receded by 12cm and 4cm at Chhatnag and Naini, respectively on Tuesday by 4pm. District Magistrate (Prayagraj) Manish Kumar Verma said, "Things have improved after the water level of the twin rivers started receding on Tuesday. However, It would take time to reach the normal level as we have set up as many as 23 flood relief camps and are offering facilities to over 8,000 flood victims." The DM, meanwhile, said, "The department has identified those localities where the flood water has started draining out, and following this, teams of Prayagraj Municipal Corporation (PMC) and Panchayati Raj have been instructed to take up spraying and cleaning exercises." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like It's Genius for Learning Languages [See Why] Talkpal AI Undo He also said that teams of NDRF, SDRF, and police are working round the clock to assist people.

Expect light rain over next few days in city
New Delhi: The city continued to experience a humid day with a "feels like" temperature of 44.8 degrees Celsius on Tuesday afternoon. As the monsoon trough line is to the north of the city, towards the foothills, experts believe that the city will receive only light or very light rain, with the possibility of moderate showers in isolated areas over the next 2-3 days. Delhi may expect substantial rain only after the trough is either south of the city or over it. "Currently, the monsoon trough line is in the Himalayan foothills, which is why it is witnessing devastating rains. Within 24 hours, the intensity is expected to drop, but the rain will not stop. In Delhi, however, isolated areas may receive some rain, but nothing substantial is expected to happen over the next few days until the trough shifts either southward of Delhi or over Delhi," said Mahesh Palawat, vice chairman, Climate Change and Meteorology, Skymet.
