Monsoon arrival delayed in Delhi

India

Delhi's much-awaited monsoon is lagging behind schedule, with only scattered drizzles and sticky humidity so far.
The monsoon trough is still south of the city, stretching from Rajasthan to the Bay of Bengal.
Earlier forecasts had expected rain by June 27, but now all eyes are on the next 24-36 hours.

IMD has put out a yellow alert for rain

The IMD has put out a yellow alert for rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds.
This delay isn't just about sweaty commutes—monsoon rains are crucial for cooling things down, supporting crops, and filling up water supplies across Delhi.
If predictions hold true, relief could arrive by June 28 or 29.
