A western disturbance is causing sudden changes in the weather across north India, with rain, hail, and strong winds, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). IMD scientist Akhil Srivastava said the weather system is affecting the northwest region, especially the hill states and adjoining plains, bringing rain, snowfall in the mountains, thunderstorms, and hailstorms.

The weather in north India has been fluctuating rapidly, alternating between bright sunshine, rain, hail, and squalls. The IMD has attributed the phenomenon to the western disturbance currently active over the region.
The western disturbance brings immediate disruption to daily life in the hills and plains, with crop damage from hail and travel delays from rain and snow a risk. The IMD scientist named the cause but did not say how long the system will last or which districts are most vulnerable. The next update from the department will clarify the timeline for relief from the unsettled weather.
