The monsoon embraced Delhi in an impressive manner on June 30 but rains have repeatedly given the capital a miss since then. For past few days, IMD has been struggling to make accurate predictions for the Capital city.
Earlier, the IMD on July 4 issued a yellow alert for July 5 and an orange alert for July 6, which was later shifted to July 7. The weather department later predicted “fairly widespread to widespread rainfall activity” over west Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi and Rajasthan on July 9 and July 10, and issued a yellow alert, warning of moderate rainfall in the capital on Sunday. But Delhi didn’t get rain on any of these days.
