Hey folks, looks like Mother Nature's had her fill and is giving the good ol' Moradabad area some much-needed refreshment! After a torrential downpour on Monday, Moradabad's Katghar area found itself knee-deep in water. Traffic was at a standstill, and the locals were bogged down, seasoning the day with an extra helping of inconvenience.
According to the IMD, Moradabad's skies will remain partly cloudy, with a possibility of rain or thundershowers until May 9. So, if you're looking for a weather prediction, you'd best keep an eye out for those occasional spells of rain.
