Will Storms and Rain Finally Bring Relief
New Delhi: North India is currently in the grip of an intense heatwave, with temperatures hovering around 45°C, pushing people to their limits. The scorching conditions persist not only during the day but also at night, offering little relief. However, a shift in weather is expected soon, which could change the situation.
Major Alert for Storms and Rain
According to the India Meteorological Department, the next 36 hours are crucial. During this period, strong winds, dust storms, thunderstorms and rainfall are likely to occur. Wind speeds may reach 70-80 km/h, potentially causing damage in several areas.
Western Disturbance Behind the Change
This sudden weather shift is being driven by the combined effect of a western disturbance and cyclonic circulation. While this system may reduce the heat, it could also bring strong winds, hailstorms and the risk of lightning. It is being seen as a pre-monsoon indicator.
Signs of Slight Relief in Delhi-NCR
In the Delhi-NCR region, temperatures are currently between 41°C and 43°C. From the evening of April 26, cloud cover, strong winds and light drizzle are expected. This may bring a slight dip in temperatures, though immediate relief is unlikely.
High Alert for Uttar Pradesh and Bihar
The impact is expected to be more severe in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, where strong storms, rain and lightning strikes are likely. Wind speeds may reach 60-70 km/h. This could pose challenges for farmers, as crops may be damaged.
Impact on Other States
States such as Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab and Haryana will also experience changing weather conditions, including storms, rainfall and possible hail. Temperatures may drop by 2-4°C, but conditions will remain unstable.
Different Effects in Hills and Southern India
In Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, rainfall is expected, along with snowfall in higher altitudes. Meanwhile, pre-monsoon activity is intensifying in southern states like Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, where thunderstorms and rain are likely.
Stay Alert
This weather change brings both relief and risk. Strong winds and lightning may cause damage, so people are advised to stay cautious and keep track of weather updates.
