Today, the scattered light to medium showers were experienced intermittently as the battered residents along the Sukhna Choe, Ghaggar river, Patiala Ki Rao, Jayanti Ki Rao and other seasonal rivulets and nullahs struggled to put their crippled lives back on the track.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for heavy rain coupled with thunderstorm and lightning at isolated places in Chandigarh and Haryana on Friday while the weather is likely to remain dry on the weekend.
