  "account": "Delhi has experienced 8% more rainfall than the average for its season, according to a report by The Times of India, despite neighboring regions facing rainfall deficits. This unusual contrast has led experts to speculate that El Niño and climate change may be influencing Delhi's weather patterns. While Haryana received 23% less rainfall, the capital district remains an anomaly among a larger area with below-normal precipitation.",
  "summary": "Delhi has received 8% more rainfall than normal this monsoon, contrasting with neighboring regions facing deficits. This anomaly may be due to changing weather patterns linked to El Niño and climate change, affecting low-pressure systems and boosting rainfall in the capital.",
