Delhi-NCR residents received an “Extremely Severe Alert” warning about thunderstorms, lightning, heavy rainfall, hailstorms, and wind speeds reaching up to 90 kmph. Authorities urge people to stay indoors and remain cautious.

Residents of Delhi-NCR have been placed on high alert after weather authorities issued an “Extremely Severe Alert” on Saturday. The warning predicts dangerous weather conditions, including thunderstorms, lightning, heavy rainfall, hailstorms, and powerful winds over the next few hours. Citizens have been advised to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel to ensure their safety.

Severe Weather Expected Across Delhi-NCR

Many people across Delhi-NCR received emergency weather notifications on their mobile phones warning about severe weather conditions expected within the next three hours. The alert described the situation as “extremely severe” and urged residents to take immediate precautions.

According to weather officials, thunderstorms are likely to develop across several areas of Delhi, Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, and nearby regions. These storms may bring frequent lightning, moderate to heavy rainfall, and even hailstorms in some locations.

Strong Winds Could Reach 90 kmph

One of the major concerns is the strong wind speed expected during the storm. Officials said sustained winds could range between 60 and 80 kilometers per hour, while gusts may reach up to 90 kilometers per hour.

Such powerful winds can damage weak structures, uproot trees, and affect traffic movement. Flying objects and falling branches may also pose risks to people outdoors.

Authorities Issue Safety Advisory

Authorities have advised residents to remain indoors until the weather improves. People have been asked to avoid open spaces, parks, and roads unless absolutely necessary.

Special caution has been issued regarding:

• Standing under trees during thunderstorms.
• Staying near electric poles and power lines.
• Taking shelter in temporary or weak structures.
• Traveling unnecessarily during severe weather conditions.

Officials also recommended keeping mobile phones charged and staying updated with weather alerts.

Impact on Daily Life
