Heavy showers on Wednesday evening brought Delhi respite from humidity experienced over last few days, also causing waterlogging and traffic jams. According to the India Meteorological Department monsoons are expected to lash Dehi in the next 48 hours. "Most likely monsoon will be declared in Delhi by tomorrow," an IMD official said. The official said monsoon was being delayed in eastern Uttar Pradesh, one of the most dry areas now, due to a cyclonic circulation over north Odisha, which was cutting the easterly winds and moisture towards Uttar Pradesh.
