IMD issues heavy rain warning for Noida, Greater Noida

Southwest monsoon has hit the national capital and heavy rains are expected from July 25. The monsoon season started off late but a couple of heavy spells can balance out the deficiency.

“We are expecting a strong spell from July 24 evening and July 25 morning over Delhi-NCR. Since monsoon showers come in spells and after weak to moderate spells, a strong spell is underway and most likely, a warning with orange alert can be issued as well,” said Kuldeep Shrivastava, scientist, Indian Meteorological Department.

With heavy showers anticipated in the city, is Noida monsoon ready? Can Noida accept the monsoon challenge? If it does, what are the odds that Noida can pass this challenge? Because the last rains in Noida have made the situation troubling for people as roads got flooded and many residential areas face waterlogging.
