India, May 22 -- After several days of scorching heat with temperatures above 40degC, Delhi-NCR saw a sudden weather change on Wednesday evening. Heavy rain, hailstorms, and strong winds hit the national capital and nearby areas, bringing relief but causing tree falls, waterlogging, and traffic jams.

Flight operations at Delhi airport were disrupted, and Yellow Line Metro passengers were stranded for hours.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said a cloud mass moved from North Delhi south-southeastwards, triggering a dust storm and strong winds.
