  "account": "Delhi-NCR residents awoke on Saturday to overcast skies and milder temperatures, even though the southwest monsoon had already departed the city. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) anticipates further rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds across the region in the days ahead. A new weather system is set to arrive, bringing precipitation to Delhi-NCR, including Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad. The IMD noted that a Western Disturbance is presently positioned north of the area, combining with the monsoon withdrawal line to create cloud cover and high humidity. These conditions have been keeping the typical late-September heat at bay.\n\nTemperatures in the Delhi-NCR region have been dropping since the monsoon's departure. Minimum temperatures in some parts of Delhi have plummeted 3.1°C to 5.0°C below the norm. The IMD expects maximum temperatures to remain stable for the next 24 hours before experiencing another drop of 3-4°C. On September 25, Delhi's Safdarjung station recorded a maximum temperature of 33.0°C and a minimum of 24.2°C, both of which are close to the normal range. Since June 1, Delhi has received 728.6 mm of rain, which is 16% above the normal mark of 629.7 mm, and the IMD still categorizes this as normal rainfall.\n\nOther cities in the NCR region also experienced cooling, although none recorded rain in the past 24 hours: Gurugram was the coolest spot, with a maximum temperature of 31.4°C, 4.4°C below normal; Faridabad also saw a notable drop, with a maximum of 32.3°C, 4.4°C below normal; Noida recorded a high of 32.2°C, 2.1°C below normal; and Ghaziabad, the warmest of the NCR stations, was at 33.7°C, still 2.9°C below normal.\n\nFor September 26, most areas across the NCR are expected to experience light to moderate rain, accompanied by thunderstorms, lightning, and wind gusts of up to 50 kmph. The rainfall will wane into lighter spells by September 27 and 28, with skies clearing up starting September 29. The IMD issued a safety advisory for September 26, warning of potential waterlogging on roads and in low-lying areas, which could lead to minor traffic congestion and an increased risk of vehicle accidents. The agency advised commuters to check traffic updates before departing and urged drivers to adhere to all traffic advisories while avoiding areas prone to flooding.",
  "summary": "On September 26, IMD said, most places across the NCR are likely to witness light to moderate rain. This will bring thunderstorms, lightning, and wind gusts of up to 50 kmph.",
