Heads up—IMD has put out a warning for heavy to very heavy rain in states like Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Madhya Maharashtra, and Goa until July 12.
Mumbai is on yellow alert, and Delhi is on orange alert today for possible thunderstorms and downpours.

Uttarakhand is also on watch for landslides in four districts from July 7-8.
Central and western India could see even heavier rainfall, which might mess with travel plans, daily routines, and farming.
