On the 23rd of April, the people of Delhi enjoyed some relief from hot weather as light rain coupled with windy weather visited the city. The IMD (Indian Meteorological Department) credited this ease to the Western Disturbance as it tends to interact with the cyclonic circulation over north Pakistan and northeast Rajasthan, thus creating unusual weather patterns. According to IMD, a new Western Disturbance is expected to fall in the northwest of India from April 26.

IMD’s predictions include thunderstorms with potential hailstorms and precipitation in areas surrounding Gohana, Meham, Rohtak, and Bhiwani (Haryana), along with Amroha and Garhmukteshwar (Uttar Pradesh). Further, thunderstorms with light to moderate rain and gusty winds (speed: 30-40 km/h) are anticipated across NCR (Ballabhgarh), Safidon, Jind, Panipat, Gannaur, Sonipat, Tosham, Kharkhoda, Rewari, and Bawal (Haryana), as well as Moradabad, Rampur, Sambhal, and Billari (Uttar Pradesh), and Bhiwari and Kotputli (Rajasthan).

In the next two hours, IMD expects light to moderate rain over isolated areas, including Delhi (Narela, Bawana, Alipur, Burari, Kanjhawala, Rohini, Badili, and Model Town), NCR (Gurugram, Manesar), Kaithal, Narwana, Karnal, Rajaund, Assandh, Hansi, Charkhi Dadri, Mattanhail, Sohana, Palwal, Nuh, and Aurangabad, Hodal (Haryana), Gangoh, Shamli, Kandhla, Baraut, Bagpat, Khekra, Siyana, Milak, Chandausi, Anupshahar, Bahajoi, Bareilly, Shikarpur, Khurja, and Jattari (Uttar Pradesh), Tizara, and Khairthal (Rajasthan).

The forecast is an escalation amid stifling conditions in Delhi, which point towards an interim odd with a cooler breeze expected.
