Since this is the agriculture belt of the country, these rains and hailstorms have caused damage to the standing wheat crop just before the harvesting season. In fact, wheat crops have been destroyed in the recent past.
The reason for these rains and hailstorm activities in parts of Uttar Pradesh can be attributed to the induced cyclonic circulation which was over Haryana and Punjab. Besides this, a trough from this system is also extending from this system up to West Uttar Pradesh.
However, as per Skymet Weather now, this weather system has moved over Northeast Delhi. This will lead to decrease in rain and thundershower activities over parts of Uttar Pradesh in the next 24 hours. Thereafter, Uttar Pradesh will brace for a clear weather coming up with a gradual rise in temperature.
