Yamuna Level Updates: On Wednesday, the Yamuna River in Delhi surpassed the danger level, with water reaching 205.39 meters at 9 pm. The persistent rainfall in Delhi over the past few days has caused the Yamuna's water level to rise, keeping the administration vigilant.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) released a report on Tuesday indicating that active monsoon conditions are expected to continue in Delhi for the next four days. The forecast includes a generally cloudy sky with very light to light rain or thundershowers in some areas, and moderate rain in isolated locations during the night or early hours on August 26, 2025, followed by the possibility of very light to light rain.

The weather forecast for August 27 remains as generally cloudy sky with the possibility of one or two spells of very light to light rain/thundershowers towards afternoon/evening.

Meanwhile, in Punjab, continuous rain and rising water levels in Pathankot, caused by downpours in Jammu and Kashmir, have led to waterlogging in several areas. The administration has set up the Radha Swami Satsang Beas premises as an evacuation centre, and proper arrangements for food are also being made.

The district authorities are working in collaboration with Jammu and Kashmir officials concerning the water levels. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has released a warning for extensive thunderstorm activity in Jammu and nearby regions on the morning of Wednesday, August 27, 2025.

As per the IMD, the Jammu DWR imagery at 5:10 AM indicated intense convection with heavy rain, thunderstorms, and potential hail over Jammu, RS Pura, Samba, Akhnoor, Nagrota, Kot Bhalwal, Bishnah, Vijaypur, Purmandal, and parts of Kathua and Udhampur. Moderate convection leading to light to moderate rainfall is impacting Reasi, Ramban, Doda, Billawar, Katra, Ramnagar, Hiranagar, Gool, Banihal, and nearby areas of Samba and Kathua districts. Vertical cloud profiles show cloud tops reaching up to 12 km, suggesting deep and active thunderstorms.

Officials recommend that people remain inside during thunderstorms, steer clear of low-lying and flooded regions, and adhere to official safety guidelines.
