The weather office has issued a 'yellow' alert for moderate rain and thundershowers on Saturday in Delhi, parts of which continue to reel from a flood-like situation.
Several areas, including Laxmi Nagar, Ayanagar, Lodhi Road, Mungeshpur and a few localities in east Delhi, witnessed light rainfall on Friday. There was a light drizzle in other areas, including Lutyens' Delhi.
In a forecast, the India Meteorological Department said light to moderate rainfall is expected to continue in Delhi on Saturday and added that a 'yellow' alert has been issued for the city.
"There would be generally cloudy skies with moderate rain and thundershowers," it said.
The Met Office uses four colour codes -- 'green' means all is well while 'yellow' indicates severely bad weather. It also suggests that the weather could change for the worse, disrupting daily activities.

An 'orange' alert is issued as a warning for extremely bad weather with the potential for disruptions in commutes with road and drain closures and interruption of power supply. A 'red' alert is issued when extremely bad weather conditions are certainly going to disrupt travel and power and pose a significant risk to life.
On Friday, the minimum temperature in Delhi settled at 26.8 degrees Celsius, a notch below the season's average. The maximum temperature was also recorded a notch below normal at 34.2 degrees Celsius.
According to Central Pollution Control Board data, the 24-hour average Air Quality Index (AQI) stood in the 'satisfactory' category with a reading of 73.
An AQI between zero and 50 is considered 'good', 51 and 100 'satisfactory', 101 and 200 'moderate', 201 and 300 'poor', 301 and 400 'very poor', and 401 and 500 'severe'.
