Delhi-NCR witnessed a sudden change in weather late Saturday night as rain, thunderstorms and gusty winds swept across the region, bringing cooler conditions and hail in parts of Delhi and Noida. Showers were also reported in Ghaziabad, Gurugram and Faridabad.
The spell brought relief from relatively warmer conditions across the national capital and neighbouring areas. Delhi's air quality also showed an improvement, with the Air Quality Index (AQI) standing at 191 on Saturday, compared with 230 a day earlier. However, the improvement in AQI does not establish how much of the change, if any, was caused by the rain.
