Delhi-NCR weather today, September 19: Will there be sudden heavy rainfall in New Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad? Check IMD forecast

Delhi NCR weather today, September 19, is expected to remain largely dry, with no indication of a sudden heavy rainfall spell in New Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad and most parts of the region, according to the latest India Meteorological Department forecast. The weather office has predicted partly cloudy skies over Delhi and maximum temperatures in the range of 34°C to 36°C.

The forecast comes as the Southwest Monsoon begins showing signs of withdrawal from northwest India. IMD said conditions are becoming favourable for the monsoon to withdraw from some parts of West Rajasthan around September 19. For Delhi, however, the immediate forecast points towards mainly dry weather rather than a major rain spell.

Will Delhi get heavy rain today?

For New Delhi, IMD's local forecast shows a partly cloudy sky on September 19, with no warning issued. The broader Delhi forecast also says there is no rain expected and predicts a maximum temperature of 34°C to 36°C and a minimum of 22°C to 24°C.


The situation is different in some neighbouring NCR areas. IMD's local forecast for Gurugram mentions partly cloudy skies with one or two spells of rain or thundershowers on September 19. However, no warning has been issued for Gurugram.

What about Noida, Ghaziabad and Faridabad?

The weather department has also forecast relatively moderate winds, with speeds generally around 10-15 kmph during different parts of the day. Delhi recorded a maximum temperature of 34.9°C and a minimum of 25.2°C at Safdarjung on September 18, with no rainfall recorded during the observation periods.

So, for people in Delhi-NCR wondering whether a sudden heavy downpour is likely on September 19, the current IMD forecast does not point to widespread heavy rainfall.
