NEW DELHI, India | September 28, 2026 — Weather Today September 28 2026 brings contrasting conditions across India: Delhi can expect a break from rain, while isolated heavy showers remain possible in Uttarakhand, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and South Interior Karnataka. The India Meteorological Department’s September 27 bulletin, issued at 1:20 PM IST, includes Monday’s outlook. Its Delhi forecast lists partly cloudy skies and a maximum of 31–33°C. Meanwhile, separate regional forecasts keep rain, lightning and gusty winds in focus outside the capital.
THE 60-SECOND BRIEF
- Delhi: Partly cloudy skies; the latest morning reports indicate no rain forecast.
- Temperature: Delhi’s forecast maximum is 31–33°C and minimum 20–22°C.
- Heavy rain: Isolated locations in Uttarakhand, the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and South Interior Karnataka.
- Northeast: Thunderstorms and gusty winds remain possible in several states.
- Forecast basis: IMD’s September 27 national bulletin, supplemented by September 28 morning reporting on Delhi.
Delhi Weather Today: A Drier Monday
Delhi’s immediate outlook differs from the rain warnings circulating over the weekend. The Economic Times’ Monday morning account of the IMD forecast lists partly cloudy conditions without rainfall for September 28.
The temperature range points to a relatively comfortable morning before a warmer afternoon. However, the forecast range describes expected conditions; it is not a live reading from every neighbourhood.
For commuters, the practical message is to use today’s city forecast when planning travel. A warning covering another state, or an earlier date, does not automatically apply to Delhi.
What About Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad?
The same morning report indicates partly cloudy conditions across these NCR cities. It specifically lists no rain for Noida and Ghaziabad.
Nevertheless, nearby cities can experience different local conditions. Residents should check a fresh local nowcast before a long journey or outdoor event, particularly if clouds build or conditions change during the day.
The NCR forecast does not justify describing Monday as a region-wide heavy-rain emergency.
Uttarakhand: Heavy Rain Remains Possible
The IMD bulletin forecasts isolated heavy rainfall in Uttarakhand on September 28, along with a broader spell of rain and thunderstorms.
“Isolated” matters: it does not mean equally heavy rainfall across every district. Travellers should check route-specific information and local administration updates before setting out.
Separately, the bulletin’s flash-flood guidance identifies low-to-moderate risk in selected watersheds of Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh. That guidance runs only until 11:30 AM IST on September 28; readers need a newer advisory after that cut-off.
Andaman Islands and Northeast Face Unsettled Weather
The bulletin also includes isolated heavy rain for the Andaman and Nicobar Islands on Monday. It forecasts squally thunderstorms, with gusts potentially reaching 70 kmph.
Across Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura, the outlook includes thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds. These forecasts describe possible local hazards rather than uninterrupted severe weather everywhere.
For exposed outdoor activities, check local warnings close to departure time. Island and coastal travel plans also require current marine advice.
Karnataka and the Southern Outlook
South Interior Karnataka remains among the areas expecting isolated heavy rainfall on September 28. This is a regional forecast, not confirmation that every Bengaluru neighbourhood will receive heavy rain.
Business Standard’s Monday report also highlights thunderstorm and gusty-wind risks in Tamil Nadu and other parts of the country.
Meanwhile, the broader southern outlook varies by location and date. Readers should avoid treating a forecast covering several days as a prediction that the same conditions will occur everywhere today.
Delhi Could Turn Warmer Later This Week
Business Standard reports that mainly clear conditions could follow in Delhi from Tuesday. Maximum temperatures may rise to 32–34°C on September 29 and 33–35°C from Wednesday.
Therefore, Monday’s relatively cool start may not last through the week. These figures remain forecasts and can change with subsequent updates.
What Readers Should Check Next
Match every warning to its place, issue date and validity period. Keep observed rainfall totals separate from predicted rainfall, and check a new advisory when an older one expires.
For September 28, the main distinction is clear: Delhi’s outlook points to a rain break, while selected hill, island and southern areas still face heavy-shower risks.
