Key Questions Answered
The India Meteorological Department has issued a severe weather alert for at least 20 states, predicting moderate to heavy rain, thunderstorms, and stormy winds reaching up to 60 kilometers per hour from October 4 to 10, 2026.
The sudden weather shift is driven by a combination of systems, including an upper-air cyclonic circulation over Sikkim, a trough stretching from northeast Bihar to the northwest Bay of Bengal, and another circulation over the Gulf of Mannar.
Delhi and surrounding areas are expected to experience light to scattered rainfall between October 6 and 10, 2026, which may cause further drops in temperature along with potential traffic jams and waterlogging.
