Delhi-NCR hit by heavy rain: Flights delayed, streets flooded as IMD warns of more thunderstorms

Delhi woke up to heavy rain on Saturday that slowed flights, flooded roads, and brought morning traffic to a crawl. The India Meteorological Department forecast thunderstorms and more showers for the capital later in the day. Himachal Pradesh faces an orange alert in three districts and a yellow alert elsewhere, with the monsoon already claiming over 200 lives since June. Rainfall in several districts is far above normal, though no major flood warnings have been issued yet.
