The city's primary weather station recorded winds gusting up to 82 kmph and 81.2 mm of rain in six hours -- between 11.30 pm and 5.30 am.

Flight operations at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) were disrupted too as a result of the inclement weather.

In a post on X at 3.59 am, IndiGo said adverse weather conditions over Delhi had led to temporary disruptions in flight operations.

Two hours later, the airline posted that operations were back to normal.

Later in the morning, IndiGo, in another post, said the flight operations continue to be disrupted.

Heavy rains also lashed parts of Uttarakhand and Haryana.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) had issued a red alert for Delhi and nearby areas ahead of the rains.

The weather body had said in its nowcast that a thunderstorm cell was approaching Delhi and adjoining areas from the west/northwest. Under its influence, severe thunderstorm or dust-raising wind activity accompanied by frequent lightning and gusty winds (speed reaching 40-60 km/h or more) was likely.

The IMD has urged people to avoid open spaces, not take shelter under trees, stay away from weak walls and unstable structures, and not go near water bodies.
