Monsoon to bring widespread rain across India in coming days

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a forecast for widespread rainfall across multiple regions of the country as the monsoon trough continues to remain active. Northern, eastern and central India are expected to experience heavy precipitation over the coming days, the IMD said in its latest weather advisory.

Delhi is anticipated to receive light rain on Friday as moisture-laden winds move through the region. However, Saturday is likely to bring more significant weather activity, with isolated heavy rainfall expected over the national capital and neighbouring states including Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan.

The persistence of an active monsoon system during this period is consistent with seasonal patterns, though the exact distribution and intensity of precipitation may vary across districts and localities. The IMD has advised residents and authorities in affected areas to remain alert for potential impacts from heavy downpours, including waterlogging and localised flooding in vulnerable zones.

The meteorological agency continues to monitor atmospheric conditions closely and is expected to issue updated forecasts as weather systems evolve over the next 48 to 72 hours. Residents are advised to check official IMD updates for district-specific weather information and rainfall predictions.
