Delhiites woke up to a pleasant Tuesday morning as rains lashed many parts of the city. However, it did not take long for the mood to change, as waterlogging, blocked roads and long traffic jams followed the day. The heavy rainfall disrupted traffic movement in several areas, especially in Gurgaon where many schools were closed. Braving massive traffic jams, many people took to social media to share their plight.

From calling the water on flooded roads enough for 'fish breeding' to comments such as 'swimming to work', the people of Delhi clearly found a silver lining in the grim situation.
