    Digital Desk: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has announced a much-needed respite for Delhi NCR with forecasted light to moderate rain and winds, offering relief from the ongoing heatwave. 

    The IMD's latest update highlights that areas across North, North-East, North-West, West, and Central Delhi, alongside adjoining regions like Lohi Dehat, Ghaziabad, Sonipat, and Rohtak, will experience these weather changes imminently. Wind speeds are expected to vary between 20-30 km/h during this period.

    As Delhi-NCR grapples with severe heat conditions, the IMD anticipates the monsoon's arrival around June 30, bringing hopes for cooler temperatures. A red alert has been issued for West Uttar Pradesh due to the intense heat, underscoring the critical weather conditions prevailing in the region.

    Notably, Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital reported five fatalities potentially linked to heatstroke on Wednesday, with a dozen individuals, predominantly daily wage laborers, in critical condition requiring ventilator support.

    The expected rain and winds are eagerly predicted, offering much-needed relief and setting the stage for the imminent monsoon season. This forecast brings hope of easing the relentless heat and improving the overall climate conditions in the region.
