Severe Weather Hits Noida
On Tuesday, Noida experienced intense rainfall accompanied by strong winds, leading to significant flooding in various areas and disrupting traffic. The India Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert for Delhi, warning of light rain and storms in the coming hours, although no substantial rainfall has been recorded in the city so far. In contrast, Noida faced heavy downpours throughout the day, resulting in waterlogging in several low-lying regions. The drainage issues caused traffic to slow down considerably on major roads, leading to delays.
