Aftermath of Delhi Rain; Today's Weather  

Delhi experienced a heavy rainfall of 228 mm on Thursday night leading to waterlogging across the city the next day. The change in weather surely brought relief from the heatwave the city has been grappling with; however, the recorded rainfall led to infrastructure and transportation damage compelling the Delhi government to call for an emergency meeting to set up quick response teams, and control rooms to address the problems of water logging. 

Delhi's sky turned sunny on Saturday morning with warm weather. The temperature in the capital city will hover from 30.05 degrees Celsius to 39.22 degrees celsius. The humidity levels are 40%, all indicative of a hot and humid day outside.
