Over Five Lakh Affected by Floods in Uttar Pradesh

-PTI/ TheWire.in

New Delhi: Over five lakh people in 1,243 villages of Uttar Pradesh have been affected by floods, officials said on Wednesday after the state recorded an average of 13.1 mm rainfall in a 24-hour period which is 154 per cent more than normal.

The conditions were, however, hot and humid in neighbouring Delhi and Punjab and Haryana, while in Uttarakhand, two people have died in rain-related incidents amid an incessant downpour in various parts of the state.

A skewed rainfall distribution has caused concerns in Rajasthan, a state where some parts have received excessive rainfall while others saw below-average showers.

In the national capital, the minimum and the maximum temperatures were recorded at 26.4 degrees Celsius and 36.2 degrees Celsius respectively.

According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), sultry conditions are likely to continue in the city with no rainfall expected for another five to six days.

A weather department official said the monsoon has entered a “break phase” and rainfall will remain subdued in northwest India at least till August 16.
