Tamil Nadu trends to interior thunder, especially west. Uttarakhand, Himachal, and Jammu and Kashmir need hill‑road caution. West Uttar Pradesh turns patchier after Sunday’s peak. Keep monitoring district dashboards for any midday upgrades.

For Bengaluru, the city forecast trends partly cloudy today. Yet a thunder watch persists for neighbouring districts. IMD issues three‑hourly nowcasts through the day; check updates around commute peaks. If storms fire, they typically build from mid‑afternoon. Avoid low‑lying underpasses and tree‑lined stretches during gusty periods, and track alerts on the Urban Meteorological Services dashboard.
Delhi weather today: wet spell easing
Delhi‑NCR shifts to a lighter phase today. IMD’s city bulletin shows cloudy skies with light rain and no warning. Mainly clear conditions are signalled on September 29 and 30. Expect smoother commutes, though slick patches may linger in morning hours. Keep an eye on late‑day clouds if residual moisture lingers locally.
