IMD plans 3 more radars in Delhi-NCR to improve forecasting capability
In the next two to three years, Delhi-NCR will receive three more Doppler radars, a flood warning model, additional weather stations, and rain gauges to enhance weather forecasting, as announced by IMD chief Mrutyunjay Mohapatra. He clarified that recent heavy rains were not a cloudburst but approached the threshold, attributing the extreme weather event to multiple monsoonal systems and thermodynamic instability.
