In Assam’s Dibrugarh, streams of the Brahmaputra surged in level on Monday as a result of persistently heavy rain that led to waterlogging in various areas of the city.
Images from Dibrugarh earlier today showed the city to be partially underwater.
Earlier on Sunday, the India Meteorological Department warned that many regions are expected to see more intense rain.
“Over the following two days, a heavy rainstorm is predicted to persist across Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, West Madhya Pradesh, and East Rajasthan. Throughout the next five days, there will be heavy rain in Tamilnadu and Rayalaseema, and on coastal Andhra Pradesh and Telangana over the next day, “IMD tweeted.
Schools for all students up to class 12 remained closed due to the meteorological department’s severe rainfall warning for Monday in several districts of Uttar Pradesh.
“From October 9 to 12, there is a high likelihood of isolated thunderstorms and lightning over the state. On October 10, isolated areas around the state could expect heavy rain ” IMD stated.
Vehicle travel was hampered by waterlogging and flood water that entered people’s homes, businesses, and the wards of Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, AMU. As Delhi and the NCR were battered by heavy rain all day Sunday, parts of Noida saw significant waterlogging.
Since Saturday, the city has been battered by nonstop rain, causing major waterlogging. Several areas of Noida, notably the “underpass” in Sector 126, experienced traffic bottlenecks and other delays as a result of the waterlogging, including other portions of Noida.
RK Jenamani, a senior scientist at the India Meteorological Department (IMD), however, predicted on Sunday that rain will not occur in the capital city and its environs beginning on October 10.
