IMD forecasted thunderstorms, lightning, and hailstorms on March 15 and 16, with no warning for the rest of the week yet in New Delhi.
This would bring relief from the heat to the residents, as many areas recorded temperatures over 30 °C yesterday.

The weather agency also issued a yellow alert for Sunday, cautioning about light rainfall accompanied by guest winds and predicting a further drop in temperatures over the coming days.

According to the Meteorological Department, Agra may experience drizzle accompanied by strong winds on March 15th.
Higher altitude areas around Srinagar are likely to witness snowfall and cloudy conditions due to the influence of western disturbances affecting Jammu and Kashmir.

The fresh spell of snowfall in the higher reaches may also impact visibility and travel conditions.
