An extremely severe weather warning has been issued for the district, with authorities cautioning that the next three hours could bring strong thunderstorms, heavy rain, lightning, and even hailstorms in some areas. Winds are expected to blow at 70–90 kmph, with gusts reaching up to 100 kmph. People have been urged to remain cautious and follow safety advisories.
Delhi is expected to witness thunderstorms, lightning, and strong winds tonight as a weather system from Haryana approaches the city, the IMD said. A yellow alert has been issued, with rainfall likely in the coming hours. Satellite images indicate that a large band of rain-bearing thunderclouds is moving towards the capital.
The IMD said the weather system originated from intense convection over Haryana and is now shifting east towards Delhi. Its impact is expected to reach the city later tonight.
The approaching system is expected to bring a dramatic change in Delhi’s weather. Areas experiencing calm and dry conditions during the evening could soon witness thunderstorms, gusty winds, and rainfall.
