‘9 AM Feels Like 7 PM’: Delhi Sky Goes Dark After Heavy Rains

“What’s up with the weather?” Yep, that’s what everyone in the Delhi-NCR region seems to be thinking (and Instagram-ing/tweeting) today.

On Tuesday, 22 January, Delhi woke up to rains, lightning and thunderstorms, following which – for at least a couple of hours – the national capital remained engulfed in dark clouds!

Delhiites took to Twitter with weather updates.

Guess what time it is in Delhi? #delhirains #NOFILTER
inclement weather will only lead to more people falling sick. Every single Delhi person I know is either sick or has someone in the family whose sick. Horrible #DelhiPollution only contributes further to the decline of health pic.twitter.com/ZVNJYXkyA5

The India Meteorological Department has predicted heavy rains at isolated places in the national capital the entire day.

What can we say? Except expect a lot of traffic today!
