Dense dark cloud blanketed the national capital on Tuesday as early October rain brought down the mercury by several notches after a hot weekend.
However, the downpour also sharply reduced visibility and caused traffic jams and waterlogging in several areas. At Palam Airport, visibility fell from 6,000 metres at 1.30 pm to 1,200 metres by 5 pm, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD).
Many parts of the city appeared gloomy during the day as rain continued to lash the city, brought on by the impact of a western disturbance. Till 5.30 pm, the Palam weather station recorded 41.6 mm of rainfall, while Ridge recorded 37 mm.
The city's primary weather station at Safdarjung recorded 5.8 mm of rainfall, according to IMD data. The change in weather also caused a sharp dip in temperatures.
