Delhi Weather: Heavy rain lashes national capital, waterlogging reported – check IMD's forecast
Heavy rainfall lashed several parts of Delhi on Tuesday, providing much-needed relief from the extreme heat. However, many areas experienced problems of waterlogging and traffic congestion. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted more rain throughout the day, forecasting a "generally cloudy sky with moderate rain." The weather agency has also predicted more showers for tomorrow. Waterlogging was reported in parts of south and southwest Delhi after fresh rainfall, causing slow-moving traffic and flooded streets, commuters said. Visuals from the Sangam Vihar area showed vehicles plying on flooded streets. A bike also got stuck in a waterlogged area, with the rider trying to move his vehicle. Schoolchildren were seen slowly crossing the waterlogged street, which made movement difficult for them. Visuals also emerged showing rainwater flowing down the stairs of the Parliament building, while vehicles moved past in the background. Meanwhile, due to the downpour, the Opposition's planned protest at the Makar Dwar of the Parliament building under the banner of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) campaign was postponed. Officials said the demonstration would now be held after the House is adjourned for the day. The weather department has stated that the temperature in Delhi will vary between 36 degrees Celsius and 23 degrees Celsius over the next seven days, until July 28. According to the IMD, the city will experience generally cloudy skies with very light to light or moderate rain, accompanied by thunderstorms or lightning, over the next seven days.

Low pressure likely to bring heavy rain in south Bengal districts: IMD
The IMD on Tuesday (July 22, 2025) forecast heavy to very heavy rain in parts of south Bengal from July 24 to 28 owing to a possible formation of a low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal. A cyclonic circulation is likely to emerge over the north Bay of Bengal by Wednesday, and under its influence, a low-pressure area is expected to form over the same region in the subsequent two days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said. Owing to the low-pressure system and strong moisture incursion from the Bay of Bengal, rainfall is likely to increase in south Bengal. Isolated heavy to very heavy rainfall in some districts in the region is expected during the July 24-28 period, it said. The IMD said that heavy to very heavy rainfall is very likely to occur at one or two places in South 24 Parganas, Jhargram, Purba and Paschim Medinipur, Bankura and Purulia districts on July 24 and 25. The sub-Himalayan districts of Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Jalpaiguri and Alipurduar are very likely to receive heavy rainfall from July 26 owing to the weather system, it added.
