Cold Wave in Delhi: Rain, hailstorm to lash city next week

Earlier on Tuesday, the weather department predicted that light to moderate rain and a hailstorm with winds gusting up to 50 kilometres per hour will lash northwest India, including Delhi, next week. Delhi has not recorded any rainfall this winter season so far. The Met department attributed it to the lack of strong western disturbances in November and December.

Delhi saw an intense coldwave spell from January 5 to 9, the second longest in the month in a decade, according to IMD data. It has also recorded over 50 hours of dense fog this month so far, the highest since 2019. The Met office said coldwave conditions would abate from Thursday under the influence of two western disturbances that are likely to affect the region in quick succession.
