Strong winds and a dust storm were followed by heavy rains in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR), bringing a welcome drop in temperatures.
Flight operations were severely impacted, as the Delhi airport witnessed average delays of 46 minutes for arrivals and 54 minutes for departures, per FlightRadar.
The Delhi airport assured efforts by the ground staff to ensure a seamless experience, while multiple airlines urged passengers to check the latest status of their flights before heading to the airport.
"Some of our flights to and from Delhi are being delayed or diverted, which is likely to impact our overall flight schedule. We are doing our best to minimize disruptions," Air India said in its statement on X.
Waterlogging was reported in many parts of Delhi, with visuals emerging from areas like Dwarka, Khanpur, South Extension Ring Road, Minto Road, Lajpat Nagar and Moti Bagh.
