The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for Delhi on Sunday, forecasting light to moderate showers in the city. The monsoon has finally covered the entire country, with Delhi being one of the last regions to receive the rainfall.

According to the IMD, the southwest monsoon advanced into the remaining parts of Rajasthan, West Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana, and the entire Delhi region on Saturday. This year’s monsoon arrived in Kerala on May 24, a week earlier than usual, and reached Mumbai on May 26, nearly two weeks ahead of the typical onset date.

Despite some initial delays and revisions in forecasting, the IMD had predicted that the monsoon would cover the entire country within 3–4 days. On Saturday, rainfall was reported in western Uttar Pradesh, Noida, Ghaziabad, and Gurugram, while Delhi saw limited rainfall in some parts of the city.

The IMD noted that this is the earliest monsoon onset across the entire country since 2020, when it occurred on June 26. The monsoon covered the entire country nine days ahead of its normal schedule of July 8.
