Cloudbursts, landslides, and flash floods have caused widespread devastation in the hilly states. The hilly states will also soon see some relief from the rains. Meanwhile, heavy rains are expected in the plains, including Delhi, today, bringing relief from the humid heat and potentially bringing a drop in temperatures.
